Recruited mainly from the Carolinas and Georgia and Tennessee, they were one of the hardest-fighting units the U.S. ever fielded in Europe. What was it about these men that made them so indomitable? They were tough and resilient for a start, but this division had something else.

Das Areal, das für das Deutsche Reich in Besitz genommen wurde, erhielt die Bezeichnung "Neuschwabenland" - heute ein fast mystischer Begriff, der mit zahlreichen, teils phantastisch klingenden Behauptungen und Legenden verknüpft ist.
