Book Description
This historical fiction traces the life of an Austrian Nazi, Reiner Hartmann. Born in a small town in Austria in 1919, Reiner becomes a dedicated follower of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. He enters the Wehrmacht and becomes an exemplary Waffen SS Panzer Leader. Whether placing his life at risk during numerous battles with Polish, French, Russian, Canadian, and American forces, or performing cold blooded executions of Jewish men, women and children as a leader of an Einsatzgruppe; Reiner Hartmann's performance is flawless in the eyes of his superiors. Much of his service is in the armored divisions of the Third Reich fighting battles with Germany's best tanks such as the Panzer IV, the Tiger, and the Panther against French Char B1s, Russian T-34s, and American Shermans. He survives the war and becomes a military advisor to the Egyptians in their struggle to overwhelm the Israelis. This book provides a lot of technical information on the performance of the tanks Hartmann commands as well as those he encounters.
