Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Until seriously wounded on the Eastern Front in August 1944, Armin Boettger experienced the horrors of the Second World War from the perspective of a panzer radio operator. In his very personal account, Boettger relates in a sober and realistic manner the fighting and experiences on and behi…nd the front. He details his involvement in battles across Europe in honest terms. He describes vividly the cruelty and senselessness of war, along with the injustices and irritations of army life. The author was by no means a hero: he admits that he volunteered for the Wehrmacht to avoid sitting his school leaving exams (but obtain his Abitur leaving certificate). He also concedes that he lied about his health in an attempt to avoid being sent to the Eastern Front and was determined to stay alive at all cost. The book features almost 200 photographs taken by the author during the war and includes images taken in action. AUTHOR: Armin Boettger served the German Wehrmacht in World War II as a Panzer radio operator. He survived terrible woulds and after the war he became a Professor of Odontology. He lives in Berlin. A graphic first-hand account of the bitter fighting on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Until seriously wounded in August 1944, when he was badly burned when his tank was hit and caught fire during fighting in southern Poland, Armin Bottger experienced the horrors of the Second World War on the Eastern Front from the perspective of a tank radio operator in the 24th Panzer Division. In thi…s memoir he gives a full and honest account of his wartime career, encompassing both the hellish terror of combat and the everyday annoyances and injustices of army life in wartime.Bottger had volunteered to join the Wehrmacht, but only because this would allow him to receive his Abitur (school leaving certificate) without sitting an exam. He is perfectly honest about his efforts to make his service life as comfortable and safe as possible, for instance becoming a radio operator because it was less hard work than being a Panzer driver and by getting himself postings as a courier to keep out of the front line. He also freely admits to lying about the state of his health to avoid being thrown into the hopeless battles in East Prussia at the end of the war. He was a skilled photographer, and was never without his camera, and his unique collection of colour and black and white photographs illustrate this book.This is a story that graphically portrays the reality of war on the Eastern Front, without heroics and told with contempt for the high command and the Nazi leadership, who were mostly safe at home while Bottger and his comrades suffered and died.
