From D-Day to Ve-Day : The British Soldier - Pt. 1 : Uniforms, Insignia and Equipment

This has been the publisher's bestselling title for nearly ten years: two volumes illustrating the uniforms, insignia, equipment, weaponry and vehicles of the British soldiers who invaded Europe in 1944 and progressed from Normandy to the Baltic Sea after the D-Day landings.

Presented in the popular big-format style which has made previous books from this publisher best-sellers in the militaria market, these new volumes present unique information in a series of full colour and archive photographs.

Coverage in Part One includes: Headgear; Uniforms; Badges and Insignia; Parachute clothing and equipment; Web equipment; Anti-gas equipment; Medals and ribbons; Field rations; Individual armament; and Optics, map reading and signals.

This re-issue is originally published in Sept 1998, ISBN 2-908182-44-0.
