Hello guys,

for my current project using DML's GEN2 Fallschirmjäger I want to get an Osprey title for better reference. So I'm still undecided on which title to get.

I'm in between on:
Fallschirmjäger
German Paratrooper 1935–45
(Warrior 38)

German Airborne Troops 1939–45
(Men-at-Arms 139)

I need references on uniforms and equipment in terms of painting as well as little background on airborne operations.
Maybe owners the title can spare me a little hint

Hi Foxy I have the title in my collection of their books. the one you want is Men at Arms series 139 - German Airborne Troops 1939/45. It contains a great deal of information as well as the usual colour plates.

Hope this helps,

John

Ciao Foxy,
Actually, I was going to recommend the other title. It sticks strictly to the Fallschirm. I also would recommend the Fallschirm in action book by Squadron. Lots of info.
Ciao for now
