I was wondering which WWII related books everyone reads when they're not playing CM.

I just bought Achtung-Panzer! Which reveals Heinz Gudarian's thoughts and theories on armored warfare and motorized land battle.
It's very interesting to read and it gives you that bit extra when you're playing CM.

Right now I am reading "Against the Panzers:US infantry VS. German tanks 44-45" I have a bunch more i just ordered coming to go into the pile.. but most of the stuff I get is more used for Refrence for modeling, mods or whatnot.

I recently finished reading War Without Garlands, by Rob't kershaw. It is a great book about the first year of the Eastern front. Every page has half a dozen quotes from soldier's diaries or interviews. It is especially good about the conditions of life in the field, the stress of conducting non stop motorized attacks- and the endless slogging on foot which was the lot of most German infantry. Good photo sequences too.
