| World War II was
primarily an infrantryman's war and our GIs made legends of the weapons they carried. This
book is the definitive guide to the weapons carried into combat by U.S. soldiers during
WWII. Amazingly comprehensive, it covers everything that was carried into combat by the
Army or Marines and fired from the hand, shoulder, or light support. It covers rifles,
carbines, knives, shotguns, machine guns, mortars, bazookas, grenades, recoilless rifles,
submachine guns, automatic rifles, flame throwers and more. Includes special collector's
notes for each section. Bruce N. Canfield is the world's foremost author on American
military weapons of the 20th century. Hardcover, 303 pages, packed with 417 photographs. List price $39.95 Check price at: Learn more... |
Notes: In the TV series Combat! in most of the non-archival footage, the "Messerschmitt" (Me-109, standard Luftwaffe fighter until the middle of the war) is really an American P-51C Mustang or a P-51D (has a "bubble" canopy) Mustang. All tanks used, German and American, were contemporary American tanks provided by the US Army. Every German or American armored car used in the series is the standard American World War II-era armored car.
