We begin with a long and interesting work on the use of the Totenkopf division during the Zitadelle operation launched by the Germans to eliminate the dangerous Kursk salient. Then follows the biography of Fritz von Scholz, an officer who first served in the Wiking division and then commanded the Nordland division. We continue with the formation and use of the Italian Army on the Eastern front, a topic that we will also deal with in the upcoming issues. Speaking of Axis volunteer formations, we begin with this issue an in-depth study of the history of Swedish volunteers enlisted in the Waffen-SS. We close with the formation of the Hitlerjugend division.
