   1. The Waffen SS: The Alibi for History

   1 Sept 2001

   The Waffen SS - the SS army - was not always looked upon favorably by the German army. With some 900,000 non-Germans in its ranks, it was the performance of crack divisions such as the SS Panzer Liebstandarte and the Hitler Jugund that persuaded the Fuhrer to use them as an elite force. These are the remarkable personal accounts of Germany's rise and fall from the inside, a unique opportunity to see and hear the last testimonies of Hitler's armies

   6. The Luftwaffe: Messengers of Death

   6 Oct 2001

   The Luftwaffe was at the cutting edge of Blitzkrieg and it was instrumental in bringing the war to the great cities of Europe, most notably during the 'Blitz' on London during 1940. As the war progressed, however, the pilots were forced to fly more in defence of their country, often in inferior and outdated aircraft.
