That is just a few remnants isn't it! It's a bit sad in a way.

Thank you very much for telling me, you've been very helpful

Does anyone know anything about Soldbuch.com? It was recommended to me a while ago but it seems to have been closed down or something. Was wondering if anyone could tell me for sure - it hasn't just changed address or anything? I tried asking on a different forum but didn't get any reply so I though...

Aaah, I'm showing my ignorance here! I didn't realise that Hitler was the only one who had the right to award the RKs. Thanks for that, it makes sense. Does anybody know any more about this possibility?

Ok, thank you for clarifying that for me.

Hello all, I have a passage about SS-Hstuf. Karl-Heinz Lichte which I am finding difficult to understand. I have translated it online and it comes out pretty badly as you can imagine! I can just about make sense of it but there are a couple of words that I guess are military terms and/or places (tha...

I recommend Landmark Military Booksellers. I ordered a few books from them recently and was highly impressed with the service. Doug who runs it was extremely kind and very patient with me when I chopped and changed my order and postage requirements, he also e-mailed me on request to let me know when...
