  • M1035 Publication Title: Guide to Foreign Military Studies
    Publication Number: M1035 Publication Title: Guide to Foreign Military Studies, 1945-54 Date Published: 1954 GUIDE TO FOREIGN MILITARY STUDIES, 1945-54 Preface This catalog and index is a guide to the manuscripts produced under the Foreign Military Studies Program of the Historical Division, United States Army, Europe, and of predecessor commands since 1945. Most of these manuscripts were prepared by former high-ranking officers of the German Armed Forces, writing under the sponsorship of their former adversaries. The program therefore represents an unusual degree of collaboration between officers of nations recently at war. The Foreign Military Studies Program actually began shortly after V-E Day, when Allied interrogators first questioned certain prominent German prisoners of war. Results were so encouraging that the program was expanded; written questions replaced oral interrogation, and later certain highly-placed German officers were asked to prepare a series of monographs. Originally the mission of the program was only to obtain information on enemy operations in the European Theater for use in the preparation of an official history of the U.S. Army in World War II. In 1946 the program was broadened to include the Mediterranean and Russian war theaters. Beginning in 1947 emphasis was placed on the preparation of operational studies for use by U.S. Army planning and training agencies and service schools. The result has been the collection of a large amount of useful information about the German Armed Forces, prepared by German military experts. While the primary aim of the program has remained unchanged, many of the more recent studies have analyzed the German experience with a view toward deriving useful lessons.

  • Battle for the Caucasus and «Edelweiss» Operation
    Kesaonova Veronika Department of Economics, year 3 Battle for the Caucasus and «Edelweiss» Operation In August 1942, elite troops of the Wehrmacht mountain shooters advanced along the snowy slopes of Elbrus. Soldiers were dragging tools and building materials behind them in order to gain a foothold on the Caucasian ridge. The plan for the «Edelweiss» Operation was developed by Hitler in June 1942, when it became obvious to the Wehrmacht commander that the Blitzkrieg on the eastern front was dragging out, and they wouldn’t be able to win the war with the Soviet Union at a flash speed. The Führer decides: to bleed the Red Army, all the oil necessary for the work of Soviet armored vehicles and aircraft must be taken away from it. To do this, according to Hitler’s plan, Army Group "A" under the command of General Wilhelm List should have bypassed the Caucasian ridge from the west and, having captured Novorossiysk, moved to Tuapse - one of the oil regions of the Caucasus.At the same time, another army group " B" under the leadership of Fedor von Bock went to the eastern part of the Caucasus Range to take control of Grozny and Baku. In total, to capture the Soviet oil fields, 167 thousand soldiers, 15 thousand oil specialists and more than a thousand tanks were involved. The most unexpected blow of the Red Army was to be delivered by the mountain shooters of the Edelweiss division.This unit was to cross mountain passes unprotected by Soviet troops in the Elbrus region in order to hit the rear of the Red Army, trying to stop Army Group "A" in the west of the Caucasian ridge.
