 Battle of Berlin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wehrmacht had a twelfth or less of the fuel it needed to operate effectively, and production of fighter aircraft and tanks was down significantly, with quality much lower than it had been in 1944.
In the battle for the city the Soviets lost about 2,000 armoured vehicles, in good part due to an effective shoulder-firing rocket known as a Panzerfaust, mass numbers of which were supplied to German civilians, though countermeasures such as armor and wire skirts were being deployed.
Initially this behaviour was tolerated by many Red Army officers, but as the invasion turned into occupation the army authorities and the NKVD put a stop to it.

Panzerfaust responded that he expected to be back in business, under a new name, "within a week," but, after several weeks, his expectations did not pan out.
Panzerfaust, who had already served time in California for drug-dealing, then stressed that he was starting a new and different business, which was "already successful." He said that he had "nothing to worry" about the criminal charges because he had "the best" lawyer.
Panzerfaust, who had been exposed as a Mexican, said, "You are not doing anything for me." Skinheads repeated that they only wanted to help Skinheads, by defending their right to make and distribute music.

 Otto Skorzeny - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In this role, in July 1943, he was personally selected by Hitler, from among 6 Luftwaffe and Army special agents, to lead the operation to rescue Benito Mussolini, the dictator of Italy and a friend of Hitler's, who had been removed from power and imprisoned by the Italian government.
On May 25, 1944, he was assigned to Operation Rösselsprung, the paratroop commando operation aimed at capturing Yugoslav Partisan leader Tito at his headquarters near Drvar and crushing the communist resistance in the Balkans.
As planned by Skorzeny in Operation Greif, about two dozen German soldiers, most of them in captured American army Jeeps and disguised as American soldiers, penetrated American lines in the early hours of the Battle of the Bulge and sowed disorder and confusion behind the Allied lines.

In the course of the war a series of models was produced, ending with the Panzerfaust 100.
As in all small arms cartridges (and unlike the electrically fired Bazooka and Panzerschreck Launchers), the charge in the tube was ignited by percussion, firing a 44-mm hollow-charge antitank grenade from the tube.
Allied tank crews trapped in the blind enclosures of the Norman bocage country often became aware of concealed Panzerfaust teams only when their vehicles were struck by exploding antitank grenades.

Spearheaded by Panzerfaust Records, a neo-Nazi music label based in Newport, Minnesota, the distribution campaign will target schools with sampler CDs of songs by various white power bands whose music is filled with racist and anti-Semitic themes.
The Panzerfaust CD distribution was modeled after a project begun by neo-Nazis in Germany, also dubbed "Project Schoolyard," which was thwarted earlier this year after German authorities learned of the plan and confiscated the CDs.
Panzerfaust has announced the tracks it plans to include on the CD, which includes music from some of the most popular and virulently racist and anti-Semitic white power bands.

Immediately after the Crete operation the paratroops had requested the construction of special midget tanks (Lilliputpanzer), which could be carried along on airborne operations, as well as special light weight portable antitank guns.
Moreover, in an airborne operation it was seldom possible to carry along the necessary amount of ammunition or have it brought up later.
Carrier pigeons and messenger dogs proved very successful in airborne operations; the former for communicating with the base, the latter for communication within the company or from company to battalion.

Dees had once sued Skinheads, claiming that they were "discriminating against every Negro in the State of Georgia." Dees lost that case in federal court in Atlanta and had to enter an embarrassing court-order, attesting that all the charges he had brought were adjudicated as false.
Dees, then, used the pretext, afforded by Panzerfaust, to claim that Skinheads were all "criminals" and "misfits" from whom Dees would save the world.
Foxman claimed that the Skinhead website's "reluctance to share the spotlight" with Panzerfaust and other criminals had kept Skinhead numbers "small." Skinheads say that they avoid associating with those who generate "conspiracy," RICO or "hate" prosecutions and that they are growing and becoming stronger, as a result.

The Panzerfaust 30 obvisouly shared the same range as its the Faustpatrone, but featured the more familiar warhead, and with far better penetration power than the Faustpatrone.
The Panzerfaust 150 was the first of the series to feature a reloadable tube.
The Panzerfaust 250 was identical to the 150, however, it was roughly 6 inches longer, could fire a high-explosive bouncing warhead, and a blast guard on the rear of the tube.

This was the first test of the pitch-over manoeuvre required for the operational A4.
The V-1/Fi-103 was much cheaper than the V-2/A4, but it was slow and low - it operated at 160 m/s at an altitude of between 200 and 2000 m - and vulnerable to enemy flak batteries and interceptors.

 German Panzerfaust, WWII - Inert-Ord.net
The Panzerfaust was an improvement over the Panzerschrek rocket launcher in that it was easy to produce, light and was operated by one person requiring almost no training.
Since the momentum of the warhead was created by reaction to the mass of the high velocity gas exiting out the tube, there was no recoil.
The Panzerfaust was not a rocket launcher, but rather a smooth bore recoilless rifle.

Because the division hadn’t completed it’s training it was held in reserve during “Operation Market Garden” and then, in December by spectacular night flights, was flown from the UK to Rheims in France to take part in the Ardennes battles.
Initially used to guard a section of the Meuse River it was then sent to relieve the 28th Infantry Division and took part in clearing operations to push the German forces back out of Belgium until being pulled out of the line in February 1945 to prepare for “Operation Varsity” or the Rhine crossing.
Operation Varsity saw the division being dropped east of the Rhine River and was a complete success with both Paratroops and gliders landing close by their targets enabling all the objectives to be captured quickly.
