Seller's Description:
Good. ix, [1], 221, [1] pages. Illustrations. Occasional footnotes. Maps. Notes. Bibliography. Cover has some wear and soiling. This is the Combat Studies Institute Research Survey No. 5. The author graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in 1971 and received an M.A. in European History from Stanford University and an M.M.A.S. in military history from the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College. As an infantry officer, he has served in a variety of assignments in Germany, Korea, and the United States. From 1979 to 1982 he was an instructor and assistant profession in the Department of History at West Point, He assumed command of an infantry battalion at Ford Ord in the summer of 1987. This study examines the evolution of the German Army's defensive doctrine on the Russian Front from 1941 to 1945. It begins by reviewing prewar doctrine as expressed in German field manuals and professional journals. German defensive techniques are then traced throughout the war, with particular emphasis upon the elements of continuity in German doctrine. This doctrinal evolution is examined in three levels: what substantives changes occurred, why those changes developed, and the methods by which the changes were put into effect within German units. Primary sources consulted in this investigation include wartime publications of the German Army High Command (OKH), unit after-action reports, and other doctrinal materials in the German Military Records Collection, National Archives.
