Hans III - Wagemueller returns.......2002-04-15
I believe 'Devils Guard' was based on truth but, I find 'Unconditional Warfare' a little far-fetched. Elford does show a lot of imagination in using Gliders and Lewisite to combat the VC. One thing is for certain if the US had used these tactics the Vietnam war would have been over a lot sooner.

Another follow up to the saga of hans wagemuelelr and his battalion of th damned. The stroy becomes a little weeker than the orignal Devils Guard. If you have not read the original I highly recommend that over the following 2 parts. Still its, adventourous reading!

Hard to find war story.......2007-03-04
Classic book with good following. Some doubt as to where the alleged true story ends, but it is a great read nonetheless (if you can find a copy).
One of the best war books of all time.......2003-09-13
Hans and company are back in this book filled with excitement and chaos. It is also a tragedy, since the American advisors could have potentially prevented the American debacle in Vietnam if only the brass would have listened. Perhaps they did, but they did not take it seriously, and many American soldiers needlessly lost their lives when they were unprepared for a war the likes of which they had never fought before. Even more ominous is the current situation in Iraq which reminds me of the same situation that we had in Vietnam, since it seems that we have learned little about guerilla warfare. How different the situation would be if we had Hans's experience in guerilla warfare in this situation...
Unfortunately, we are in a bad situation and we cannot act as Hans and his comrades did. We cannot simply use poison gas to flush out hundreds of guerillas without causing an outcry and hundreds of civilian casualties. We cannot act as Hans did, as his savagery was what made him the most successful anti-guerilla fighter of all time.
Anyway, the Batallion of the Damned (now called Task-Force G) causes massive damage to the Vietcong and the Khmer Rouge with the help of American equipment and advisors. This book will clarify the true horror of the wars in Vietnam.
Great Book.......2003-02-07
This book exposes the light on subjects far forgotten in the annals of History. Few ever knew about former Waffen S.S. commandos joining the French Forgien Legion and even fewer know that those who did fought the Viet Minh with their own tactics. In Devils Guard II you will read on accounts of Mustard Gas used on a supply depot, explosive bullets, ambushing the Viet Minh on their own turf, and long range raids far into North Vietnam. This book is a must have for all Military Historians or anybody else intresed in the infamous French Indo-China War. Belive me when I say this book is a great read. I have read mine so many times I had to tape the cover and spine together to keep it from falling apart.
Excellent, remarkable, thrilling, story of the one time SS........1999-02-25
Must read! The continuing saga of Hans, Reidl, Altrieter and the other men of the one time Battalion of the Damned. In this EPIC they are soldiers of fortune, working for, or rather paid by the government of South Vietnam. Their only mission is to stop the Vietcong by ANY means they see fit. Accompanying them are American "advisors," or rather the American CIA are advised, by the one time German SS, on how to create a guerilla fighting force (10th group ?). The French pull out of Vietnam, yet Hans and his "Cammando of Death" continue to surprise the enemy, destroying, killing, and impeding the communist advance into South Vietnam.

Some never knew.......2007-06-18
To a soldier conflict and combat are the mainstay of his vocation and profession after a certain point the victor and vanquished become little more than facts to be minded by the history keepers (usually the victors) and refered too by the participants in abbreviated rhetoric and broken dialogs. The author has done the reader a great service in the delivery of this redition of the activities and experiences of soldiers as they traverse the perilious and unforgiving realm of those involved in the arena. The fact that this material is non fiction affords the reader the added benefit of being a glimpse of history rearely exposed from a participants perspective.
Devil's Guard.......2007-02-25
I loved this book. I don't believe as a christian that this is necessarily the right approach to win a war, but it is indisputable that you can win a war using Hans Josef Wagenmuellers methods.
Great Premise.......2006-07-06
This is a great story for all of the reasons mentioned in the other reviews, but the writing is really second rate. The use of exclamation points is childish in many instances.
Well worth your time if you can get your hands on one.
I enjoyed The Five Fingers by Gayle Rivers more than Devil's Guard.
It is another may or may not be true war story set in Southeast Asia.
Perhaps the best book written on the psychology of anti-terrorist operations.......2006-05-31
This book confirms everything I had long suspected about the Waffen SS and people who fight terrorism. If you want to beat terrorists you have to be fantastically ruthless to win. If you're not ruthless you'll eventually lose the war against terrorists. The tales of torture and abuse by the Communists in this book will make the typical reader pale. However, since egalitarian Communists are doing the abuse we Western people must turn a blind eye.
George Elford meets the ex-French Foreign Legionnaire Wagemueller when both are having a friendly conversation about hunting rifles at a range. Wagemueller says he was a kopfjaeger and he agrees to give a series of interviews to George Elford. The total time of these tapes covers nearly 18 days. Indeed, there is so much information that this information is covered in the books of Devils Guard II and III.
This fantastic story of conflict was written by George Robert Elford and was based on the first-hand interviews with "Hans Josef Wagemueller", a former Waffen SS "kopfjaeger" (head hunter) who miraculously survived the horrors of the Eastern front in World War II. Hans led a large group of German Waffen SS troops through Russian lines trying to reach Western Europe after he learned of the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany. The march through Russian lines to Germany started with over one battalion of soldiers. Most didn't make it, only about one out of six, and those that did escape from the Soviets joined the French Foreign Legion along with Hans. The Germans were helped in a small "Odessa" like organization, an underground German organization that did try to help German War Veterans. However, this organization was quickly crushed by the Allies by 1947 at the latest. Most of the Waffen SS who joined the French Foreign Legion were a step ahead of the Allied hangman.
Note: Wagemueller's journey through Russia to Germany is the stuff of legends. A prequel novel of this adventure should have been written. Hans treats the journey as not much more than an arduous side note to the greater tale of Vietnam.
Hans is brutally honest in his opinions about the Allies in WWII. He thought the Soviets were sub-human, Communism was a blot on humanity, and the Americans were nearly as bad as the Soviets in the debasement of Germany and its citizens. These facts are not found in your typical Russian, American, or German history books. The plain truth in Germany after WWII was it was the first war in which the common soldier was held responsible for collective crimes as individuals. So, the American Army held the whole Waffen SS as guilty of war crimes in the prisoner massacrers during the Battle of the Bulge.
The French Foreign Legion was fighting a bloody war in Indochina. The Foreign Legion has a policy of ignoring the past of any enlistee (it's done to this day). So, Hans joined the Foreign Legion and spent the next five years fighting against the fiercely determined Viet Min guerrillas. At first the French have old war hatred against the ex-German solders (soldats). However, after a French Foreign Legion battalion is destroyed to the last man by the Communists the commanding officer of the German Legionnaires, Colonel Hassong, gives the German Waffen SS a free hand in offensive operations. The Germans, when out of the French Garrison fort, actually adopt their old rank structure again and address each other in German. The French Waffen SS adopt their old anti-terrorist Soviet tactics against the Viet Min. Colonel Hassong drily comments that the reason why the German Waffen SS were so hated by the Allies was not because of war crimes but because they are so darn good at their jobs. When the French would put the Waffen SS into a sector the insurgent activities would quickly die off, either the Communists would flee or be killed. Indeed, the French Waffen SS does some amazingly good attacks on very little effort. One Viet Min battalion is killed by the Germans carefully putting rat poison into the water supply. Another Viet Min company is killed when walking through a valley and a cliff is blown up burying the Communists. The Germans "think outside of the box" when fighting the Communists. Few other units would be their equal.
This book will quickly explain why the USA lost the war in Vietnam and could lose the war on Islamic Terrorists. Bluntly, war is war and there are few real innocents in any area. Strumfuerher Wagemueller and his Waffen SS soldats knew the score; terrorists must be hunted down and exterminated. Presently, Western Civilization, with its many P.C. encumbrances, may not be up to the task of eliminating the true threat that all of terrorism is making toward civilization. Conversely, Wagemuller tolerated no rape nor individual war crimes in his command. Several soldiers who admitted to a rape and were nearly summarily executed.
Wagemueller's ways of waging war are hinted at in the director's cut version of the movie "Apocalypse Now". Marlon Brando's character, playing the mad Colonel Kurtz, says that he could win the war in Vietnam if he had "250,000 of the right kind of soldiers". Kurt's character was actually referring to the dedicated, tough, and determined Germans who crushed the Communists in the early 1950s.
Wagemueller had mostly contempt for America's way of waging war. The American soldiers were ill trained. The officers were poor leaders who often were just "ninety-day-wonders" with little more training than the common troops.
I consider this book a clear introduction to the mental psychology needed to wage an anti-terrorist war. First, you must have well trained soldiers to wage a successful anti-terrorist war. Activated Guard units with a limited tour of duty soldiers are not the equal of well trained and well led anti-terrorist fighters like Wagemueller's Waffen SS Legion. Second, you must have a "hearts and mind" program. Wagemueller and his people actually debated a Communist Commissar. The people of the villages will listen to a reasoned debate. Third, the sources of terrorist activity must be destroyed. Hans and his Waffen SS battalion were fantastic at finding terrorist bases, destroying them and exterminating the terrorists. More than one raid was made into Communist China and destroyed millions of dollars worth of supplies. Last, the anti-terrorist military army must be backed up by a willing government and press. Unfortunately, the French government and French press both undermined the Waffen SS war on the French war on terror. In less than five weeks in 1953 the press cut off support for the successful anti-terror operations. In less than three years the French lost Indo-China.
Wagemueller and his Waffen SS soldiers all resigned from the French Foreign Legion. Most returned back to Germany. Many, like Wagemueller, took Asian wives and lived in their new adopted homeland. The Fatherland was destroyed in 1945 and they had no wish to return to something wrecked and violated.
This is a book about warriors. If the advise in this book was followed then we would win the war on Terror in the matter of months.
WOW - great book........2006-05-30
I'm usually a WW2 reader but this book was awesome. I hope it is true. I wish there was some way to find out if it really all happened. This book will make you think about what is going on today in places like Iraq and Afganistan. I wonder if we aren't using tactics like this but just not saying anything about it. How couldn't we.

A mystery novel, involving sorcery and black magic.......2006-09-18
Supernatural adventure novel set in Tibet. Jimgrim, Ramsden, Chullunder Ghose and Narayan Singh battle the Black Circle, an organization of evil Tibetan adepts. Published later in Britain as Ramsden. This book introduces the White Lodge/Black Lodge theme. Mark Frost used it in Twin Peaks, and it seems to me that it may also have influenced Lucas' Jedi/Sith concept. I know Lucas read quite a few of the pulps, but I have never seen any mention of Mundy in the list of works he drew upon for Star Wars. Talbot Mundy's The Devil's Guard ia a bit old-fashioned, but this is more than what it seems at first. It starts out as a more or less straightforward British-chaps-in-Asia adventure, with two fellows going off to rescue an erstwhile companion, but it turns into a spiritual adventure into deepest Tibet. (And anyone who watched second-season "Twin Peaks"--this is where the "White Lodge" really comes from...)

truely awesome.......2007-08-28
i agree totally with the first review.
this book is simply the best of its kind. Once you start you will not put it down. They were hard men used to killing and the vietcong found out to their cost.
i cannot stress enough the brilliance of this book.
One Heck Of A Life.......2007-02-06
I have read quite a few military books. From strategy and history to personal biographies, but this one takes the cake. This is about Vietnam, BUT it ranks among the top ten of any military book I have read. I picked up my copy when it first came out in paperback, I still own it and have read and re-read it five times, if there is any way you can get a copy of this book, even if you check it out from the library, it is worth every minute you spend reading it. You can read lots of self imposed heroics but this book has none of that. These men were hard, they lived and died that way. There are many books that I could strongly recommend and there are only a few that I would flat out recommend, this is one of those books. Get a hold of one and I promise you won't be disappointed.

Book Description
A welcome reissue of the pioneering work on Black resistance, with a superb new introduction by Robin D G Kelley. "No piece of literature can substitute for a crystal ball, and only religious fundamentalists believe that a book can provide comprehensive answers to all questions. But if nothing else, A History of Pan-African Revolt leaves us with two incontrovertible facts. First, as long as Black people are denied freedom, humanity, and a decent standard of living, they will continue to revolt. Second, unless these revolts involve the ordinary masses and take place on their own terms, they have no hope of succeeding." [from the introduction by Robin D G Kelley]

Book Description
When he successfully deciphered the Rongorongo script of Easter Island --the mysterious system of glyphs in which the island's original inhabitants had recorded their ritual chants and ceremonies--Steven Roger Fischer gained a unique place in the pantheon of glyphbreakers. He is the only person who has ever deciphered not one but two ancient scripts. Both of these scripts yield clues of great historical importance. Fischer's previous decipherment, of a Cretan artifact called the Phaistos Disk, provided the key to the ancient Minoan language and showed it to be closely related to Mycenaean Greek. Contrary to prevailing archaeological opinion, the Minoans were Greeks, and Crete's Phaistos Disk now comprises Europe's oldest documented literature. Fischer's decipherment of Rongorongo shows that it was not merely a mnemonic device for recalling memorized texts, but was physically read and was the vehicle for creative composition. It was thus shown to be the only known indigenous script in Oceania before the twentieth century. Glyphbreaker is the exciting story of these two decipherments, by the man who now must rank as the greatest glyphbreaker of all time.

A Wonderful Detective Novel whith the Author as Criminal..........2002-08-08
... or hero. This book is on the border between very serious research and pure invention. It is exciting to read Fischer's claims, well knowing that he may be completely wrong. Just like when you read a detective novel, the reader can repeatedly ask himself: "does that argument hold?", "what if it's like this instead?" or "why didn't anyone think about that before?" No one can deny that Fischer spent a lot of energy and thought on the effort to decypher the Faistos disk, and following his thoughts is as intriguing as reading Agatha Christie. Between Fischer's sometimes questionable conclusion there are plenty of interesting facts about history, culture and language of the Antiqity. His style is easy to follow and captivating, regardless of if his result is the final truth (which he thinks himself) or just imagination (which I tend to hold).
If this book had been published as fiction, I would have given it five stars.
Interesting but utterly unconvincing.......2000-06-22
Fischer claims to have deciphered two of the remaining undeciphered ancient scripts. However, while he might have sacrificed a lot in his efforts, the results are not convincing. The Phaestos disk has been the subject of many decipherment attempts. The Phaestos disk homepage alone lists 39 such endeavours. Fischer's methods are more scientific than most of the others, but ultimately not much more persuasive. The glaring flaw in his method is that he does not have enough checks to eliminate bad assumptions. With a text as short as the Phaestos Disk, if you make enough assumptions you can get a legible text in whatever language you want. That is exactly what is presented in Glyphbreaker. Fischer has studied the Easter Island script extensively, and thus brings a wealth of knowledge to his discussion of that script. However, his proposal is certainly not a true decipherment and the jury remains out on its validity.
Interesting but self-serving and flawed.......1999-10-04
Fischer's claim that he has deciphered two scripts makes for an interesting story. The man has certainly suffered personal trials and professional disappointments which would discourage most - as he himself repeatedly lets the reader know. I cannot judge his claim concerning the Easter Island script, but his supposed decipherment of the Phaistos Disk, though it starts out with promise, finishes with unsupportable and highly speculative leaps of linguistic logic. The fact that he can only bring forth a non-specialist National Geographic editor as a supporter should make anyone wary of accepting his conclusions. His repeated comparisons of himself with Michael Ventris, the amateur who deciphered Linear B, are painfully self-serving. His story of having his decipherment rejected by John Chadwick because Chadwick wasn't open to Fischer's ground-breaking results due to old-school conservatism is a telling passage. I think Chadwick, who championed Ventris against the scholarly establishment, rejected Fischer's ideas for the simple reason that they are unconvincing.
Glyph Breaker is a wonderful example of science as it ought.......1998-05-24
Writing about breaking the Japanese NL military code before World War II, Rear Admiral Edwin T. Layton said "...only two hundred intercepts (messages) were ever made, a totally inadequate number for the penetration of any cipher system."
I recalled this as I read "Glyph Breaker" by Steven Roger Fischer. Fischer, using but a single example (intercept) of a Minoan clay disk containing a mere 241 pictorial symbols, managed to decipher the script as an ancient call to arms. Glyph Breaker is Fischer's story of how he deciphered this and also the enigmatic Rapanui script of Easter Island, Rongorongo.
To decipher the Phiastos Disk, Fischer had to overcome a terrible problem. He knew in advance neither what the various characters on the disk represented, nor what was the underlying language. In contrast, military code breakers generally know the underlying language, even if encryption makes it unreadable. A comparable example is using Navajo as a code during WWII, a language the Japanese neither understood, identified or ever deciphered. Thus, encryption of an unknown language makes a devilish problem.
How Fischer set about deciphering the disk makes not only an interesting story in itself, but is a superb example of science in practice. He began with an internal analysis of the symbols and their order; that is, with the information content of the message. In this endeavor Fischer was lucky to have a long and complete text sequence. The 241 characters of the Phiastos Disk may not seem long, but it is longer than any comparable text in the collection of 57,000 Linear B (Mycenean) glyphs. Virtually the lot of these consisted of accounting for stores of goods, and took Michael Ventris five years to decipher. The sample texts of the as yet undeciphered Minoan Linear A script are even shorter. The entire 7,000 glyph collection of which consists of short accounting marks, dedications, and manufacturer's marks. Deciphering Linear A is like trying to reconstruct English from credit card r! eceipts and coffee cups.
Once the internal analysis yielded what it could, Fischer then placed the message in a context. This means simply a guess at the point of origin of the Phiastos Disk, but this was not easy to do. For decades scholars had argued that the disk was not a Minoan work, despite being found in a Minoan Palace. Some even speculated that the Minoans themselves were not Indo-European. Fischer guessed that the disk was indeed Minoan. Whatever language they may have spoken, Minoans would certainly reflect influences of their neighbors by making reference to local places and tribes.
Recognizing tribal and place names gave Fischer not only the essential clues for breaking the code, but also provided tests of the decipherment. This general decipher method works because the evolution and succession of languages leaves proper names recognizable. To a linguist familiar with the underlying language of a text, proper names stand out as glaring anomalies. Layton, for example, in breaking the Japanese Weh Weh code found "P" sounds appearing in un-Japanese positions in encrypted words that proved to be Palau and Ponape. In the case of the Rosetta Stone, the most famous of decipherments, the English physicist and physician Thomas (Phenomenon) Young surmised that oval enclosed sections of text were the proper names of Ptolemy and Cleopatra. Champollion used this as his point of departure.
Fischer is a linguist, a discipline absolutely essential for the decipherment of ancient texts or military codes. Indeed, Champollion brought to the decipherment of the Rosetta Stone a natural gift for languages. By age 16 he had mastered 6 ancient oriental languages as well as Latin and Greek. Likewise Fischer is a language connoisseur. He learned Japanese while living in Okinawa at age 11. Soon thereafter he discovered French then Russian then German and so forth. He used comparisons among some 20 languages alone to decipher the disk.
Thus, clues for decipherment come from both history and linguistic! s. Sometimes, however, the key to decipherment comes not from these typical sources, and thus lies unnoticed for generations. Rongorongo script, for instance, was sung for American ethnographers by a Rapanui steward on a stormy night in 1886. The steward fabricated some of his readings but in one instance he recreated the true structure of Rongorongo inscription. This key to later decipherment lay unrecognized for 100 years, even though later Rapanui identified this particular chant as authentic.
Fischer's insight was to recognize the structure of the authentic chant in one Rongorongo script called the Santiago Staff. Without this insight the decipherment of Rongorongo might not have happened; for Rongorongo has no related scripts, it is the only indigenous form of Polynesian writing; and the underlying language, Rapanui, is no longer spoken. None of the strategy that Fischer used to decipher the Phiastos Disk would work here. Adding to this difficulty was the encyclopedia of speculation and nonsense that grew up around Rongorongo.
Fischer also had a bit of serendipity. Among all the world's surviving examples of Rongorongo, only one, the Santiago Staff, uses the vertical dividers in the text which helped Fischer recognize the chant. Like Pasteur, Fischer sees that chance favors the prepared mind. He had thoroughly immersed himself in Polynesian culture and mindset for seven years. Indeed, he already spoke numerous Polynesian languages and had compiled a Polynesian dictionary.
Someone once described code breaking as requiring medieval patience, and I almost expected a story about decipherment to require the same to read. Fortunately Fischer is a good, albeit scholarly, writer. In Glyph Breaker he shares personal disappointments, financial hardships, and exhilarating achievements, over the fifteen years that these two decipherments required. He weaves historical detail and anecdotes into his story at appropriate places, and never dwells too long on the arcane details of breaking the codes. He offers ! humor and even plays on words to add interest. The book keeps pace to maintain a readers interest.
A good book, but, sadly, a bit too "popular".......1998-03-02
There is no question that the author is a genius; what else might one reasonably call a person who has broken two previously undeciphered scripts, in unknown languages?
This book is a very popularized account of what was done. Hopefully, it will stir a few people to become interested in the subject. While I'm happy to have the insights into the author's personal travails and triumphs, I could wish that there had been a bit more technical information in the book.
