Assignment Gestapo

"The Washington Post" calls Sven Hassel "a brilliant storyteller," and his series of novels about life in Hitler's army have sold in the millions. In this wartime adventure, his cast of characters is caught up with the "Disciplinary Regiment," a tank regiment that doesn't actually have a tank to its name. Consisting of a bunch of hardened killers dressed in filthy rags and stinking to high heaven, they're engaged in fighting a brutal battle against the Russians. Then suddenly the orders change: they're sent to Hamburg, where their next assignment will be guard duty for the bestial Gestapo.
