HISTORICAL QUOTE:\"In war there is no second prize for the runner-up.\"General Omar N. Bradley
HISTORICAL NOTE:The Luftwaffe Field Divisions were originally authorized in October 1942, following suggestions that the German Army, the Heer,could be bolstered by transferring personnel from other services. The head of the Luftwaffe, Hermann Göring,formulated an alternative plan to raise his own infantryformations under the command ofLuftwaffeofficers; this was at least partly due to political differences with theHeer. Göring took great pride in the degree of political commitment and indoctrination of the air force men.The Luftwaffe Field Divisions initially remained underLuftwaffecommand, but late in 1943 those that had not already been disbanded were handed over to theHeerand were reorganized as infantry divisions with three two-battalion rifle regiments.Until taken over by theHeerthese units were issued with standard Luftwaffefeldblau (field blue)uniforms, and being so easily identifiable were said to often be singled out by opposite forces. Their reputation as combat troops was poor, despite the high standard ofLuftwafferecruits, at least in part from being required to perform roles (ground warfare) for which they as airmen had little training. They were frequently used for rear echelon duties to free up front line troops.
