    The Spanish Blue Division

    I have posted an interesting manuscript about the Spanish Blue Division in WWII on my webpage - www.maginotlineatwar.com. The link to the document is located at the bottom of the main page.

    The manuscript is interesting because it is written by a Spanish Army officer. The manuscript's extract is:

    "This paper summarizes the life and experiences of the Spaniards that fought on the German side during World War II. It starts with the political situation in Spain when Germany attacked Russia in 1941, and the important 1941 speech of Serrano Suier (Minister of Foreign Affairs, Falange leader, and Franco's brother-in-law), which signified the starting point for the Blue Division. It deals with the enlistment, training and movement of the Division to the front line, some of the main battles, the repatriation of the Blue Division, and the creation and repatriation of the Blue Legion."
