GERMAN REPORT SERIES: : WARFARE IN THE FAR NORTH

This pamphlet was prepared by DR. Waldemar Erfurth at the EUCOM Historical Division Interrogation enclosure, Neustadt, Germany, late in 1947. Dr. Erfurth represented the German Armed Forces High Command at Finnish Headquarters from June 1941 until the Finnish surrender in September 1944. He attained the rank of lieutenant general (General der Infanterie) in the German Army, and was a United States prisoner of war when this study was written. There were a number of these publications, many of which are in publication in the German Report Series by Naval and Military Press. They are all of significant importance in understanding the way in which the war was fought, particularly on the eastern front. Throughout this pamphlet, Finnish and Russian combat methods, organisation, and equipment are compared to those of the German Army. The descriptions of Finnish climate and terrain involve comparisons with that of Germany."
