L'artillerie de campagne de la Wehrmacht durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale

Le 1er janvier 1921, pour se conformer aux clauses du traité de Versailles, la Reichswehr ne dispose plus que de 204 pièces de 7,7 cm et 84 obusiers de 10,5 cm. À l'exception de cette maigre dotation, tout le parc d'artillerie de la Deutsche Armee existant au 11 novembre 1918 est saisi ou ferraillé.
De surcroît, tout déve- loppement de nouveaux matériels est proscrit, et pour lui éviter toute tentation, son parc de machines-outils spécialisées est réduit à la portion congrue et mis sous la surveillance de commissions d'inspection particulièrement pointilleuses. À cette date, l'Allemagne n'existe plus en tant que puissance militaire.

Le 1er septembre 1939, à l'ouverture des hostilités avec la Pologne, la Wehrmacht aligne près de 11 000 pièces de campagne regroupées dans 122 régiments d'artillerie. La rigueur des clauses imposées en 1919 a au moins eu deux avantages : l'Allemagne n'a pas eu à entretenir, durant l'entre-deux-guerres, une pléthore de pièces vieillissantes, comme la France ou la Grande-Bretagne, et elle a pu ainsi se constituer un parc d'artillerie moderne, à un détail près et non des moindres... un manque récurrent de tracteurs dédiés qui la contraindra à utiliser, pour l'essentiel, la traction animale jusqu'à la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale !

Loïc Charpentier, auteur bien connu des éditions Caraktère, nous livre le fruit de plusieurs années de recherches sur la Feldartillerie de 1939-1945 dans ce livre qui se propose de décrire chaque pièce utilisée par la Wehrmacht durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Un livre tout simplement indispensable, grâce auquel vous saurez absolument tout sur l'Artillerie de campagne de la Wehrmacht.

German Artillery in World War II, 1939-1945

Never before in German military history did the German Artillery possess such variety and magnitude as in the World War II era. From North Cape to Tobruk, Biscay to Lapland, Den Helder to the Caucasus, there were more than 1000 light and about 340 heavy artillery units, as well as the light and heavy field howitzer units, assault gun units, brigades and batteries, observation units, railroad batteries, mountain artillery units, light gun units and launcher regiments.

The German Artillery included 655,000 men in 1943, or 22 percent of all the soldiers who went into action. Thirty-nine German gun types and forty captured gun types from ten different European countries were utilized by these units.

The German Artillery took on special significance in the spring of 1943 when the fighting strength of the exhausted infantry began to decrease and armored vehicles became less and less effective in their battle against overwhelming Soviet power. During this period, the Artillery again and again provided the backbone of the German resistance and defense.

This volume of photographs presents a look into the operations, action and everyday life of the German artillery - a frequently over-looked aspect of Wehrmacht history.
