PANZERSOLDATEN! ITALIAN BLACKSHIRT DIVISION OF THE EASTERN FRONT 1941 - 1943

  • Price: $40.50  $45.00

Book Type: C

by Paolo Morisi, 288 pages

Panzersoldaten! is a history of the Milizia Volontaria per la Sicurezza Nazionale (MVSN), commonly referred to as the Blackshirts due to their wartime attire. They were an anti-Communist paramilitary organization that fought for Mussolini while Italy was under fascist rule; following the Duce’s removal from power, the organization was quickly swept up by the Italian Army, and forced to swear allegiance to the king. Some, however, defected and continued to fight for the Axis alliance as volunteer units in the German Army.

This volume covers the history of the Blackshirt Division during the campaign on the Eastern Front, focusing on its relations with the Italian Army, the history of the MVSN, its advance into Ukraine, and the First and Second Battles of the Don River. Morisi, using almost exclusively contemporary resources and battalion war diaries, as well memoirs from senior officers of the division, has created a definitive analysis of the Blackshirts.
