About this book
"The photographs in this collection belonged to First Sergeant Wilhelm Plieschen, who served with the 2nd Company of the Fallschirm-Maschinengewehr-Battalion, as part of the 7th Flieger Division. The album is in three parts: the first charts the progress of the unit through the Balkans, taking the men from Austria, through Romania and Bulgaria, and into Greece ... The album then moves from Crete to the early experiences in Russia, probably in 1942"--Introduction.
