airbornebear asked: I've actually became really interested in fallschirmjäger since this summer. Mostly because of your tumblr, but do you have any suggestions about books that talk about fallschirmjägers and their operations in WW2?
I appreciate that you show interest in the Fallschirmjäger, they are often left behind (although as of late I’ve seen an increase in interest) in the annals of WWII History.
As far as books do you want primers, full details of campaigns, equipment, or general informative books?
Off the top of my head, I’d suggest the following:
German Paratroopers by Robert Kurtz
Jump Into Hell by Franz Kurowski
Lions of Carentan by Volker Greisser
Soldat vol.8 by Chris Mason
That is a good start, and should keep you in the poor house long enough.-

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.
