Hello everybody, here’s a question of a technical nature. I’ve read somewhere on the internet quite recently that the ME-109 was equipped with a 20mm cannon firing through the propellor-shaft. Later I was wondering how this was done exactly. The propellor is connected to the engine’s crankshaft and,...

Not a former SS-member, but a dutch artist - Montyn - served with the Kriegsmarine in WWII. Even as an infantery-soldier in Koerland. Later, after inprisonment and volunteering for the Foreign Legion, he served in Korea. A book was written about his adventures, MONTYN by Dirk Ayelt Kooiman . Greetin...

I've recently read a book by Frederic Forsyth about ODESSA; an organisation of former SS-members, which helped their comrades to escape justice after the war. I've already heard more about this organisation, but always in fiction (books or movies). Does anybody has any information about the true exc...

I can't think of any real objections against this weapon; beside not being (semi-)automatic, but then almost every army used these types of weapons (bolt-action? I believe: Lee-Enfield, Springfield, Mosin-Nagant). The Mauser KAR-98K - and various sub-types - had been in use so long that it seems unl...

According to a modellerssite these armoured cars were originaly used by 3e Eskadron Pantserwagens (3rd Armoured Vehicle Squadron) of the Dutch Armed Forces in The Hague. According to another site this unit was to be formed and not active in 1940, but: http://www.schilderhuis.nl/images/knil/14k.jpg 1...

Could it not be so that the requirements for both tanks are different. The German High Command in WW2 might take in consideration the condition of possible battlefields (for example; on the eastern front). The modern German Bundeswehr might have other demands, because they are not in the process of ...

Because in Germany tank have to ride over regular roads more often, to and from training-grounds. And no use for a lower ground-pressure????????????????????????

As far as I know german submarines had already done a recoinnassance-tour of the route to Scapa flow before Prien's attack. Recoinnassance was already done in WWI, but I there was no attack because the germans believed it could not be done. Furthermore, I have always believed he did on his own. Gree...

Sorry, still just learning how to post decently

I myself have just put up a posting for more information about S/E-boats. "Erich" also mentioned [/url]http://www.prinzeugen.com/[url] and there are pictures on it. "Christoph" came with this comment : "[b]S-Boote German E-boats in action 1939-1945[/b]" by Jean-Philippe...
