IN GOOD FAITH: THE HISTORY OF THE
4.SS-POLIZEI-PANZER-GRENADIER-DIVISION, VOL I. : 1939-1943
by Friedrich Husemann
The Polizei-Division was one of the lesser-known combat
formations of the Waffen-SS. Composed primarily of police officers,
it was formed in October 1939 and served almost exclusively on the
Eastern Front where it was eventually equipped as a Panzergrenadier-Division
(mechanized division). This volume of the two-part history covers
the formation of the division in 1939, its employment during the
campaign in France, and finally its commitment in the East. Its
finest hour was in the action on the Wolchow River, where the
Russians attempted to relieve the beleaguered city of Leningrad.

4.SS-POLIZEI-PANZER-GRENADIER-DIVISION, VOL. 2: 1943-1945
by Friedrich Husemann
This second volume
on the 4.SS Polizei-Division takes up their history at the
beginning of 1943, and the story of 2 battalions that were sent to
the Don Front at the end of 1942. The author was a former member
of the division. The story takes us from the merciless forests and
swamps of northern Russia, to the partisan-filled mountains of
Greece, through Serbia and Romania to Hungary, in desperate
defensive battles in Hungary, Poland and Germany, to the final
hopeless battles near Berlin and the bitter surrender on May 2
1945.
