About this ebook
They left behind 135 armored vehicles including the King Tiger that today stands in front of the museum at La Gleize. They also left scattered on their route the murdered bodies of US servicemen—at Malmedy, Ligneuville, and Wereth—and civilians, massacres that would lead to postwar trials and continued recriminations.
The Past & Present Series reconstructs historical battles by using photography, juxtaposing modern views with those of the past together with concise explanatory text. It shows how much infrastructure has remained and how much such as outfits, uniforms, and ephemera has changed, providing a coherent link between now and then.

Reviews for Leibstandarte
2 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5full of western propaganda and lies, does not mention the murder and torture of LSSAH soldiers, tortured to own up to staged murders as Malmedy, this is a lie.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Typically biased against the Germans once again, no mention about the Germans who suffered at the hands of the murderous allies, no mention about the way the allies got the Germans to confess to their lies, just 100% fiction once again by someone who has read 5 books and written his own accounts based on lies, we know that Malmedy was faked just like the holohoax! He should be knighted just like the other lying so called historians.
