The divisions of the WaffenSS were the elite of Hitlers armies in World War II, but some of the most fanatical of these were not even German. SS: Hitlers Foreign Divisions is an indepth examination of the approximately 350,000 foreign volunteers from Germanoccupied countries who opted to fight for the Third Reich as members of the WaffenSS. The book explores the background to their recruitment and describeson a unitbyunit basistheir history, structure, and combat record in the war.Despite their nonGermanic background, the Norwegians, Dutch, Danes, Belgians, Latvians, Estonians, Cossacks, Ukrainians, and other nationalitiesoften motivated by an extreme antiCommunist zeal fought hard on the Eastern Front for the Nazi cause, even when their position was hopeless. Often treated badly by their German commanders, the foreign SS units were not all excellent combat formations, however. some, like the British and Indian volunteers, were used for propaganda purposes only, while others, like the notorious Dirlewanger Brigade, who helped brutally suppress the Warsaw Rising, were nothing more than murderous criminals in uniform. Other divisionssuch as the Russianrecruited 30th Waffen Grenadier Division der SS, formed in the final months of the warnever reached a functional strength, and were disbanded before they saw action.Illustrated with rare photographs and written by an acknowledged expert, SS: Hitlers Foreign Divisions is a definitive history of the foreign SS units who fought for Hitler and Germany in World War II.

This book dives deep into the foreign divisions that joined the Waffen-SS during WWII. I found the details of various nationalities really enlightening. It's a great read for anyone interested in military history or the complexities of the war.

A Bit Dry but Informative
While the content is rich, I felt the writing style could have been more engaging. The facts are solid, especially about the foreign volunteers. But if you're looking for a gripping narrative, this might not be it.
