Lavishly illustrated in colour and in black and white, Panzer Colours 2 explains and describes the markings of the German panzer forces in World War Two—with the same completeness and accuracy that made Panzer Colours (see back flap) such a valuable and popular book. In Panzer Colours 2 Bruce Culver describes and illustrates:
• National Insignia
• Vehicle Numbers
• Divisional Signs
• Tactical Signs
• Licence Plates
• Service Markings
• Victory Markings
• Command and Rank Pennants
• Vehicle Names
• Award Shields and Crests
With the co-operation of a number of German veterans groups, Bruce Culver has researched deeply to obtain as accurate a coverage of German vehicle markings as is possible today; in doing so, he has been able to correct many popular misconceptions, and to identify a considerable number of previously unknown insignia.
To back up the detailed text, he has selected over 180 photographs—and Don Greer has contributed a further 82 full-colour paintings— showing specific vehicle markings. There are also 5 line drawings of divisional markings, 3 demonstrating the organization of vehicle numbering, and 7 charts displaying more than 160 tactical signs. And, in full colour, there are over 150 paintings of insignia, numbers, pennants and symbols.
