Talk:36th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)

Kurowski
Kurowski is not a WP:RS source per WP:MILMOS, as he's not a reputable historian; please see:


 * Franz Kurowski, a veteran of the Eastern front, saw his two major works released in the U.S. in 1992 (Panzer Aces) and 1994 (Infantry Aces). Smelser & Davis write: "Kurowski gives the readers an almost heroic version of the German soldier, guiltless of any war crimes, actually incapable of such behavior... Sacrifice and humility are his hallmarks. Their actions win them medals, badges and promotions, yet they remain indifferent to these awards." Kurowski's accounts are "laudatory texts that cast the German soldier in an extraordinarily favorable light", they conclude.

I will copyedit the article to remove dubious or non-notable details attributed to this source. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:24, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
