This book covers in such photographic detail the German usage of both the 20mm Flak 28 and the Flak 30, both of these weapons saw extensive action on all battle fronts of the Second World War wherever the German armed forces saw service.

This new photo album is number 28 in the MMP Books/Stratus ""Camera On"" series. It is the first to cover in such photographic detail the German usage of both the 2 cm Flak 28 and the Flak 30. Both of these weapons saw extensive action on all battle fronts of the Second World War wherever the German armed forces saw service. While they were both excellent weapons at their time of development, they both rapidly became less effective as ever faster and higher flying aircraft were produced by Germany's enemies.

This book contains 140+ photographs taken by the average German soldier of both the 2 cm Flak 28 and 30 as well as their crews while in service and many of the environments they had to operate within. This volume illustrates these weapons as the soldiers themselves viewed them in both their fighting environment and, in many cases, just as a tool they lived with and had to look after on a daily basis, not the highly polished and sanitised views of the official photographers. This book is an invaluable reference for military historians and modellers alike.

Reviews for 2 cm Flak 28 & 30

""...well covered with 74 pages of large, clear images of both flaks in various settings, any of which could be good inspiration for a diorama or vignette.""-- ""Armorama"" ""The beauty of this book is the photos were taken by German soldiers during their wartime service, not typically posed and polished propaganda shots... There is a lot in these 80 pages of photographs on a crucial WWII German weapon system.""-- ""IPMS/USA"" ""Lots of details about the dug-in positions, from deployed on flat ground to wood-lined pits to concrete emplacements should give modelers a considerable number of ideas.""-- ""Historical Miniatures Gaming Society"" ""Highly recommended.""-- ""AMPS Indianapolis""
