The field equipment of the German Army in World War II was closely related to that used throughout World War I and earlier, yet it was of relatively light weight, ruggedly constructed, well designed, functional, and generally of a high quality, though this deteriorated in the later war years. A high degree of design standardisation was maintained in most categories of equipment, though materials and their colours often varied widely. There were also many different specialisations for the various arms of service as well as theatres of combat, such as the Afrikakorps in the Western Desert. This title investigates all manner of German combat equipments throughout World War II, from belt buckles to magazine pouches.

A prime source for all who need information regarding German AFVs in the Second World War. The issue of this publication, two years after the end of the war in Europe, was designed to put on record essential information on the armament of the German Land Forces during the war. It includes some of the more interesting equipment that was developed, but which, due to the conclusion of hostilities, or to production difficulties, did not come into general service. This publication, laid down in the form of a reference album, is primarily a photographic record, supported by specifications, and in some instances a short description. The material was drawn from the large collection of matter compiled by the Technical Intelligence Services during and subsequent to WW2. Much of it appeared in various Technical Intelligence Summaries and Bulletins, issued by the War Office and by GHQs overseas, supplemented by photographs and details added from German sources after the collapse of Germany. It should be noted that all figures quoted are taken from German sources. It is appreciated that in many instances these differ from the figures quoted in contemporary official British and American sources.
