Just a Topic Kick.
Already found some more info but still I'm glad to see some more info.

thnx.

Roughly translated it comes down at "Take it up the Rear" / "Up yours". The later,to my knowledge is the Englisch [UK] way of putting things. It is a "bitching" comment. For the explanation of Rudy, "Kiddingly" usage of the expression never the less has the ob...

my translation is litterally,its possible they mean more technical stuff or something,i just translated it straight up :wink: greets well, if it were literal, it really would mean fencing troops :-) and initially (without having read the rest of the thread) I would have said exactly that; I had nev...

thnx.

Kraftfahrschwadron could well point at the same as KraftfahrKorps. "Motorized Support troops"

I can see your point here Admin

Landwacht, check out the rules around posting in this section - and beware generalisations... :?: I said Many , not all. Regarding POW treatment, you could check out paragraphs in several literature's. Recently read in "Grebbenlinie 1940" by Mr. E.H. Bongers. It tells on official records ...

so "gent's like" with regards to POW's let allone to Black POW's. Manny of them got shot as did other colloured captured army men.

Bedankt, Heel interessant ["Very interesting ", for the non Dutch speaking.]

Very interesting findings. Nice area to have an house as well. Lucky you.
