"Band of Brothers" and "D-Day" by Stephen Ambrose (not really novels, mainly information)

"Black Hawk Down" by Mark Bowden[/quote]

These plus, Devils Guard, The Warrior Elite, What if?, The SS : Hitler's Instrument of Terror, Soldiers of Destruction : The SS Death's Head Division, 1933-1945, Jochen Peiper : Battle Commander, SS Liebstandardte Adolf Hitler,l Lee's Leutanants, American Generalship: The art of command,
to many to name....officers have alot of required reading

Just got finished reading this: HIGHLY RECOMEND IT! [url="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0966638980/ref=nosim/broughsbooks?dev-t=D2Y5TUCCVJ7DGE"]http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... TUCCVJ7DGE[/url][/quote:d733e]

i was looking at that book at barnes & noble the other day, looked pretty good but for some reason i didnt buy it. ill probably but it off amazon.com. basically whats the book about?[/quote:d733e]

its this guys first hand account of his expierence in ww2. And unlike most memoirs that are written 50 years + after they happend, this guy wrote this while he was a pow after the war. Everything is vivid and fresh and gives an acururate portrayel of life as a soldier in the waffen ss.
