The book includes line illustrations, photos, and text briefly describing the uniforms, insignia, and organization of the armed forces, including the army (Wehrmacht Heer), air force (Luftwaffe), and navy (Kriegsmarine), as well as the paramilitary organizations of the Nazi Party, such as NSDAP political leaders, the Sturmabteilung (SA, Stormtroopers, brownshirts), Schutsztaffel (SS), Deutsches Jungvolk, Hitlerjugend (HJ, Hitler Youth), Reichsarbeitsdienst (RAD, National Labor Service), and the armed Waffen-SS.
