In this eighth Militaria Guide, combat infantry WWII models are illustrated in colour, showing outfits and equipment. These are authentic pieces from several private and public collections, presented on the man as they were carried on the battlefield.
The first volume represents a snapshot of the army on 2 August 1914, before all the developments forced on it by the war. The second volume deal with the great changes precipitated by the flying corps and the special artillery with its first tanks.
This edition of the Europa Militaria Series is the result of live photo sessions in which actors model the uniforms of infantry and weaponry of World War I infantrymen -- both Allied and Axis. All of the equipment and settings are authentic and all of the photography is modern, resulting in a unique, full-color perspective that is invaluable to modellers and military history buffs alike.
