The book presents the detailed combat history of German Panzer-Abteilung
103 as part of the 3. Panzergrenadier-Division in Italy from September
1943 to August 1944 based on the almost unknown war diary of this unit.
The Panzer-Abteilung 103 was fully equipped with Sturmgeschütz III
assault guns. This is an impressive look at tactical-level events and
command decisions, highlighting the German armored combat tactics in
Italy. The book includes a number of original maps and excellent photos.
