What is lANDSER? |
LANDSER
at www.deutschesoldaten.com will attempt to add to the existing
cyber-literature regarding the German Army in World War Two. There is little primary
research here, and nothing in the way of information that isn't known or published
elsewhere. But it is an attempt to raise the bar as far as quality of information. For all
their zeal, many websites dealing with the German military approach the subject in a
haphazard or incomplete way, either attempting too little, or casting their net too far. This site is aimed at re-enactors, gamers and modellers, but there is information of interest to casual historians, family historians, uniform collectors, re-enactors and other hobbyists and hobby suporters. The German Army has held a certain fascination in English-speaking circles even predating the unconditional surrender of Germany to the Allies in May 1945. This fascination has found expression in cyberspace, where hundreds, perhaps thousands, of amateur websites in the English language cater to this area of interest. The webmaster has been fortunate to have had contact with German Army veterans and afficionadoes and some of the information presented here has not found expression - at least not in English - on the Internet. In the final analysis, the German nation was responsible for
the Second World War. Whatever harsh penalties may have been meted out at Versailles,
there is no escaping this. The German people are responsible for the deaths of some 10 to
12 million innocent civilians in gas chambers and mass shootings. Many of these deaths
were accompanied by public humiliation, torture, and inhumane medical experiments. |
