 Название: Images of War - Nazi Concentration Camp Overseers: Sonderkommandos, Kapos & Trawniki Автор: Ian Baxter Издательство: Pen and Sword ISBN: 1526799952 Год: 2021 Формат: PDF Страниц: 128 Размер: 60,4 МБ Язык: Английский
The Nazis' vast concentration camp network and, later, the "˜Final Solution' programme made heavy demands on the SS whose responsibility it was. The use of "˜overseers' minimised costs and enabled the camps to run with fewer SS personnel. As this well researched book describes, there were three principal groups of "˜helpers': Sonderkommandos, Kapos and Trawniki.

 Название: U.S. Air Power: Fighters, Bombers, Recon, Helicopters and Much More Автор: Bill Yenne Издательство: Portland House Год: 1989 Формат: PDF Страниц: 328 Размер: 33,7 МБ Язык: Английский
Military power exists in any rational society for the purpose of defending that society, its people and their interests, at home and abroad. As Europe discovered in 1939 and the United States discovered in 1941, weakness invites aggression. Thomas Jefferson once admonished, "If you want peace, prepare for war."

 Название: Stackpole Military History Series - Cavalry: From Hoof to Track Автор: Roman Jarymowycz Издательство: Stackpole Books Год: 2009 Формат: PDF Страниц: 324 Размер: 198,7 МБ Язык: Английский
Roman Jarymowycz has written an eloquent and insightful grand sweep of the entire cavalry saga, as he says, "From Hoof to Track." He artfully describes the long and romantic ride of the horse warrior through history, and as a descendent of many generations of Hungarian Hussars I appreciate that. But as a contemporary professional, I appreciate even more the way he captures, as few historians have, the operational role of cavalry through the ages and into the future.
