Don Stivers. In late November 1944, General Patton’s Third Army is preparing to assault the Siegfried Line for an advance into Germany. In the cold, war-torn landscape, General Walton Walker’s XX Corps, sometimes referred to as the “Ghost Corps” for the speed of their advances, stops to consult a map for the best route as they drive northeastward toward the Saar River. Print comes signed and numbered by artist’s daughter. 20½"x 16¼". #104141 $159.95

The Ghost Army

Conning the Third Reich

Souter & Souter. Throughout the course of World War II, Allied forces engaged in elaborate deceptions to fool Hitler's armies.

They made armies appear out of thin air, baffling German forces and ensuring Allied success in battle. This title includes details of the First US Army Group (nicknamed the 'Ghost Army'), the 23rd Camouflage Engineers, and accounts from double agents who risked their lives to mislead Nazi High Command. 256 pages, 6"x 9", softcover. #111807 $14.95

A: M26 Pershing – “Alles Kaput,” 18th Tank Battalion,

Legends of Warfare

General Patton was prevented from receiving needed supplies that would have ended the war nine months earlier and halted the Russian invasion of the Eastern Bloc, as well as Stalin's murderous rampage. Why was he fired as General of the Third Army and relegated to a governorship of post-war Bavaria? Was he a threat to Eisenhower, Montgomery, Churchill, and Bradley? And is it possible that the General's freakish collision with an Army truck, on the day before his departure for the US, was not really an accident? 1 hr. 26 min. #112094 $24.95
