German Seventh Army

The Seventh Army was formed before the start of World War II. It was one of the first major groups sent to fight in the western countries.

During 1944, the army fought in the famous Battle of Normandy to stop Allied forces. They were often outnumbered and had to move back to defend their own land.

In the final months of the war, the group fought in central Germany. Eventually, they were stopped by the Allied troops before the war finally came to an end.

After the fighting stopped, the army was disbanded as Germany surrendered. Their history reflects the changing fortunes of the German military during the long conflict.
