  • Involvement of Partner City Wrocław/Oleśnica World War II
    Involvement of partner city Wrocław/Oleśnica World War II Author: Piotr Michałowski 20.02.2016 Poland, the liberated state as created in 1918 after the end of the WWI, was dreamed of for many years. When it appeared, the happiness didn’t last for a long time. Poland was in that time deeply into inside conflicts and when building the governing system it was romantic to think that in an environment of growing powers, like the Third Reich or Soviet Russia, the country would be left untouched. The German philosopher Edmund Husserl would say that Poland was deep in the Lifeworld (Lebenswelt) -sometimes defined as a bubble- that it is hard to put on an equal rule with the others. In his ‘Crisis of the European Science and Transcendental Phenomenology’ (published in 1936) he wrote: “In whatever way we may be conscious of the world as a universal horizon, as a coherent universe of existing objects, we -each “I-the-man” and all of us together- belong to the world as though living with one another in the world; and the world is the world, valid for our consciousness as existing precisely through this ‘living together’”1. World War II started on the 1st of September, 1939 with an attack on the Polish harbour in Gdańsk in the west and with the bombing of the city of Wieluń in central Poland. The country was invaded by Nazi Germany from the West and on the 17 th of September from the East by Soviet Russia. The second date, after The War ended, would be forbidden to mention due to Soviet propaganda.

  • Adams on Hürter, 'Hitlers Heerführer: Die Deutschen Oberbefehlshaber Im Krieg Gegen Die Sowjetunion 1941/42'
    H-German Adams on Hürter, 'Hitlers Heerführer: Die deutschen Oberbefehlshaber im Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion 1941/42' Review published on Thursday, November 1, 2007 Johannes Hürter. Hitlers Heerführer: Die deutschen Oberbefehlshaber im Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion 1941/42. München: Oldenbourg Wissenschaftsverlag, 2006. 719 Seiten. EUR 49.80 (cloth), ISBN 978-3-486-57982-6. Reviewed by Bianka Adams (Defense Threat Reduction Agency)Published on H-German (November, 2007) They Were Hitler's Generals They were his contemporaries, shared his anti-communism and--even if not to the same degree-- his antisemitism.[1] They experienced Germany's surrender in World War I and the turmoil that gripped the country in its aftermath as traumatic, life-altering events that shattered their world. They were the twenty-five generals who led the Wehrmacht in Adolf Hitler's war of annihilation against the Soviet Union. After the end of World War II, when military tribunals tried them as suspected war criminals, they defended their actions by shifting the blame for the killings of millions of Soviet Russian prisoners of war, civilians, and Jews to the dictator. Later, they perpetuated the myth of their own powerlessness in the face of Nazi terror with the (unwitting) help of the U.S. Army's Historical Division's Foreign Military Studies, which employed them to write about the German war effort on all fronts--especially in the East. The challenge for an author of another book about this group of much- studied and -publicized generals--among them famous names such as Heinz Guderian, Erich von Manstein, Fedor von Bock, Günther von Kluge, Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, Walter Model, and Friedrich Paulus--is to offer a fresh perspective and to present new research to contribute to a better understanding of their motives.

In The Wehrmacht Retreats , Robert Citino (Univ. of North Texas) continues his campaign to rescue the his- tory of operational warfare from the dark shadows of academia. He has published extensively in the subject area for both scholarly and, increasingly, popular audiences. 1 More specifically, he has focused on the Ger- man approach to warfare. While the present volume may stand on its own, it would most profitably be read in conjunction with two of his previous studies—The German Way of War and Death of the Wehrmacht (see note 1). In this trilogy, Citino examines the use—both successful and unsuccessful—of Bewegungskrieg (war of movement) in various wars fought by the Prussian/German state. As the title here suggests, Citino is primarily interested in “how … a military establishment historically configured for Bewegungskrieg—violent aggression, relentless assault, and mobile offensive operations—react[ed] when it suddenly and unexpect- edly [found] itself thrown on the defensive” (xxviii) after Germany lost the initiative in World War II. Citino concentrates on the Western Allies’ invasions of North Africa and Italy and the challenges faced by the Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front at Kharkov and Kursk to “describe the mentalités of the German military caste in a period when the fortunes of war had definitely turned against the Wehrmacht” (xxiv).

  • Airpower in the Battle of the Bulge: a Case for Effects-Based Operations?
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 14, ISSUE 1, FALL 2011 Studies Airpower in the Battle of the Bulge: A Case for Effects-Based Operations? Harold R. Winton It should …be clearly understood that the conditions envisioned throughout are those of a campaign on land in which the primary problem at the time is the defeat of an enemy army in the field.1 J.C. Slessor, 1936 These words were penned in the introduction to Wing Commander Slessor’s work, Air Power and Armies, the published version of lectures he presented to his army brethren at the Staff College, Camberley in the mid-1930s. Like Slessor’s work, this paper is focused historically on an air effort to defeat an enemy army, or in this case an army group—Field Marshal Walter Model’s Army Group B, the operational formation to which Adolf Hitler entrusted his last, desperate gamble to win World War II—a campaign that became known in history as the Battle of the Bulge. But in keeping with the theme of “New Perspectives,” it will relate the course and consequences of that campaign to an ongoing doctrinal debate in the American armed forces over a concept known as Effects-Based Operations, or EBO. The issue on the table is to determine the 1 J.C.

  • Kirchubel on Citino, 'The Wehrmacht's Last Stand: the German Campaigns of 1944-1945'
    H-War Kirchubel on Citino, 'The Wehrmacht's Last Stand: The German Campaigns of 1944-1945' Review published on Saturday, May 5, 2018 Robert M. Citino. The Wehrmacht's Last Stand: The German Campaigns of 1944-1945. Modern War Studies Series. Lawrence: University Press of Kansas, 2017. Illustrations, maps. 632 pp. $34.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-7006-2494-2. Reviewed by Robert Kirchubel (Purdue University)Published on H-War (May, 2018) Commissioned by Margaret Sankey (Air War College) Printable Version: http://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=51318 Robert M. Citino, presently at the National WWII Museum, has again teamed up with the University Press of Kansas for his latest installment on modern German military history. The Wehrmacht’s Last Stand investigates Germany’s final battles against the Soviet Union and the Western Allies to its east, south, and west. As we have come to expect from Citino, the book is thoroughly researched, clearly narrated, and tightly argued. While Wehrmacht’s Last Stand synthesizes a great number of secondary materials—a review of its bibliography reveals only a couple pre-1945 German military journals that could be considered primary sources—it is full of new insights and thought-provoking interpretations of key events in late World War II.[1] Citino takes military historians to school by demonstrating how operational history should be written, at a time when elements of the academy consider that subdiscipline passé and of doubtful utility. The Wehrmacht had a good run during the first two years of the war, then a couple years of transition (notably against the USSR), but in Wehrmacht’s Last Stand it is reeling backward on every front.
