campguards/frontline duty
How large percentage of the concentrationcampguards served at the frontline at some point? In which units? Was there a lot of circulation? I think a lot of them where in the totenkopfdivision right?

Is newyear a pain for old soldiers?
Im just wondering if all the fireworks during new years are painful and unnerving for old soldiers or is it cool? Or civilian survivors from wars for that matter.

whether the specific events outlined in this mans diary happened I cannot vouch for, however there can be no arguement as to the behaviour of the Germans and their allies in the Warsaw Uprising, although the razing of a city is nothing new, it is relatively a unigue occurence in modern times. I wou...

Interesting. I've read about smokescreens at sea or on land to conceal one's flanks, but not in a large assault. I suppose that launching a massive smokescreen alerts the enemy that you're coming - and it may be counterproductive; if the enemy can't see you, then you can't see him. I guess if you'r...

waffen-ss were perhaps a bit more fanatical though because they were usually shot out of hand by the russians? So they preferred to fight to the death rather than surrender, or am I wrong? You really think that a Heer soldier was very keen on going into russian captivitiy?? \Christoph well, a great...
