The Viking Battalion Norwegian American Ski Troopers in World War II is a historical non-fiction book that tells the story of a unique group of soldiers who fought against the Nazi regime during World War II. The battalion was formed by Norwegian-American skiers who were trained in the art of winter warfare and deployed to Europe to fight against the German army. The book explores their journey from training to combat, highlighting their bravery and sacrifice in the face of overwhelming odds. The plot of the book revolves around the formation of the Viking Battalion, which was created in 1942 as a response to the growing threat of Nazi Germany. The battalion was made up of Norwegian-American skiers who were recruited from the United States and Canada, and they underwent rigorous training in the art of winter warfare. They were sent to Europe to fight against the German army, which had conquered much of the continent. The book begins with an introduction to the soldiers who made up the Viking Battalion, including their backgrounds and motivations for fighting against the Nazis. It then delves into their training, which took place in the mountains of Colorado and Montana. The authors describe the harsh conditions of the training, including the extreme cold and the challenging terrain. Despite these difficulties, the soldiers persevered and honed their skills in skiing, mountaineering, and hand-to-hand combat. Once the battalion arrived in Europe, they were deployed to Norway, where they fought against the German army in some of the most brutal battles of the war.
Норвежский американский лыжный батальон викингов во Второй мировой войне - историческая научно-популярная книга, рассказывающая об уникальной группе солдат, которые сражались против нацистского режима во время Второй мировой войны. Батальон был сформирован норвежско-американскими лыжниками, которые были обучены искусству зимней войны и направлены в Европу для борьбы против немецкой армии. Книга исследует их путь от обучения к бою, подчеркивая их храбрость и жертвенность перед лицом подавляющих шансов. Сюжет книги вращается вокруг формирования батальона «Викинг», который был создан в 1942 году как ответ на растущую угрозу нацистской Германии. Батальон был составлен из норвежско-американских лыжников, которые были набраны из США и Канады, и они прошли строгую подготовку в искусстве зимней войны. Их отправили в Европу воевать против немецкой армии, завоевавшей большую часть континента. Книга начинается с вступления к солдатам, составлявшим батальон «Викинг», включая их происхождение и мотивы для борьбы против нацистов. Затем он углубляется в их обучение, которое проходило в горах Колорадо и Монтаны. Авторы описывают суровые условия обучения, включая экстремальные холода и сложную местность. Несмотря на эти трудности, солдаты упорствовали и оттачивали мастерство в лыжах, альпинизме, рукопашном бою. Как только батальон прибыл в Европу, они были переброшены в Норвегию, где сражались против немецкой армии в одних из самых жестоких сражений войны.
