After the Battle was first published in 1973,[1] and appears on the 15th of February, May, August, and November each year. The editor-in-chief since 1973 is Winston Ramsey, assisted by his co-author, Gail Parker Ramsey.
The magazine deals with World War II in a "then and now" format. Articles are illustrated by historical photographs matched with a modern-day photograph of the identical scene to show how much (or how little) things have changed. Most issues feature a major article on a specific subject, with several smaller articles. All areas of the world are written about.
There are also occasional features on related subjects such as war films, vehicle preservation, and war memorials.
Pen and Sword Books have taken over the title, but have not produced new issues since No. 195, labelled the final issue.
