Historical information about the Volkssturm 1944-45 set

The Volkssturm was a German territorial defense formation established by Adolf Hitler's order in October 1944 during the final months of World War II. These units were composed of civilians conscripted for service, often equipped with various weapons and only partially trained. The Volkssturm operated mainly during the defense of Berlin and other German cities against advancing Allied and Soviet armies. It became a symbol of the desperate defense of the Third Reich and the dramatic end of the war.
