Hans von Dach
Swiss Army major Hans von Dach is the author of several army manuals, including the seminal stay-behind warfare book Der totale Widerstand: Eine Kleinkriegsanleitung für Jedermann (Total Resistance: A Guerrilla War Manual for Everyone), which first appeared 1957. It is now available as an English translation under the title Total Resistance.
Other works of von Dach are titled Gefechtstechnik ("Combat technique", various editions from 1958 to 1957), Kampfbeispiele ("Examples of Combat", 1977) and Kampfverfahren der Verteidigung ("Combat procedures of the Defense", 1959).
A sequel to von Dach's seminal work, titled Der Totale Widerstand II, Chemische Kampfstoffe (Total Resistance II: Chemical Weapons), appears to exist.[1] It promises instruction about "Chemische Kampfstoffe für Widerstandskämpfer. Herstellung unter einer Besatzungsmacht mit einfachsten Mitteln im Küchenlabor" (Chemical weapons for resistance fighters. Production during occupation with the simplest of means in a kitchen laboratory).
