WHAT THEY DID IN WORLD WAR II WAS HISTORY'S BLOODIEST NIGHTMARE.

The ashes of World War II were still cooling when France went to war in the jungles of Southeast Asia. In that struggle, its frontline troops were the misfits, criminals and mercenaries of the French Foreign Legion. And among that international army of the desperate and the damned, none were so bloodstained as the fugitive veterans of the German S.S.

WHAT THEY DID IN VIETNAM WAS ITS UGLIEST SECRET -- UNTIL NOW.

Loathed by the French, feared and hated by the Vietnamese, the Germans fought not for patriotism or glory but because fighting for France was better than hanging from its gallows. Here now is the untold story of the killer elite whose discipline, ferocity and suicidal courage made them the weapon of last resort.

Evaluate Based On Books Devil's Guard (Devil's Guard #1)

I find it hard to believe this book was ever accepted as a true account not the sensationalist pulp fiction it so obviously is, similar to the novels of Sven Hassel and Leo Kessler while purporting to be the recounted memoir of a former Waffen SS officer who joined the French Foreign Legion to fight in Indochina having evaded capture by the Allies in 1945. Having proved their worth, a group of German former soldiers is formed into a 'Legion of the Damned' to harry and destroy Communist

This is a classic that is hard to find, but passed around Marine Infantry Platoons for all grunts to read. It is a fascinating tale of Germany SS troops who evaded capture after the end of WWII from the Eastern front with Russia. They escaped to Switzerland where they joined the French Foreign Legion. The Irony of having former SS troops serve France while the rest of their comrades are being sentenced to death is not lost. In the Legion they are sent to French Indochina, where they are

Intriguing recollection of an SS Officer who, at the end of WWII, joins the foreign legion to escape execution and then fight the wars in Asia. Well written, presumably honest story of one of the many secrets of our past wars.

This was not the front cover of the book I've read, the book I've read were far older, either way the content is the important...Well... now this is a book about war...This is a rare book, which is not edited anymore... my friend bought it for 60£ and as I've seen in some places, like amazon or ebay it was a commom price for this book... There are two more which I saw they were even rarer...This book reminded me of the books written by Sven HaSSel, the swedish soldier who fought for the germans

I first read this when I was in the army... and it was passed around the platoon. What an amazing tale!

MehI cannot say that I completely enjoyed this book, while it was an interesting concept I wish that it wasnt sold as a non fiction account, written like a journal, some parts are better than others.

Members of the Waffen SS join the French Foreign Legion fighting in Vietnam. With no country to return to how will they survive?
