This is a blog dedicated to the Fallschirmjäger (German Paratrooper) of World War Two. This is not intended to glorify, incite any political/racial ideology, or for that matter lighten the matters of combat in WWII. It is intended for those who have an interest in this fascinating and illustrious part of human history.
The main theme will be about the Fallschirmjäger, but also other armed forces of Germany in WWII.
