From what I've been able to ascertain, only via the net, is that Mansal was charged/arrested back in mid January. It is now late March. What has happened since?? Does anyone know exactly?

Yep Mansal. I am the proud owner of your first work. And I am very much looking forward to your next work. All the best with it.

Thanks John. In regard to HPT: as expected his library is indeed very impressive. A standout is his collection of contemporary articles / documents, etc. on the police formations of not only the Third Reich but of the collaborator authorities in occupied Europe. The same applies to the Italian SS, F...

Some parts of my library. The first "serious" book I bought was over well 30 years when I was still a school boy. The book was Volume 2 "Uniforms, Organisation and History of the Waffen-SS" by Bender and Hugh Page Taylor. I still treasure this magnificent series very much. Hugh i...

That's great to hear Marc. Very much looking forward to the book when it is published. Have a great 2011.

I have a gut-feel it will be like the 'Arnheim' book this publisher (RZM) is "close to releasing". In other words we'll probably never see it. I hope I am wrong.

Today I received the most recent publication from Leaping Horseman Books titled: "Croatian Legion - The 369th Reinforced (Croatian) Infantry Regiment on the Eastern Front 1941-1943" by Amir Obhodas & Jason Mark. This publishing house consistently produces the highest quality and extrem...

Currently reading: "For Free India - Indian Soldiers in Germany and Italy During the Second World War". By Martin Bamber and edited by Aad Neevan. A very well researched book with good photographic material. I highly recommend it. Also received and wasted my time reading "The SS - A N...

Prit,
You have sumed it all up - exceptionally well worded. Thankyou.

Richard,
Generally you're right too. I can't deny that. Thankyou.

EXACTLY Panzermahn and Rotanhäntäpistin you are right. One could write a book on the double standard of glossary of terms and descriptions (eg: German compared to American/English/Soviet). One prime example is "Freedom Fighters" and "Terrorists" . But one has to be prepared for t...

Very well stated Jan-Hendrik. Furthermore the statements/comments of others seem to me wrong. If you use their logic it almost justifies "September 11", the atrocities by the Vietcong, NVA and others (eg: IRA) that were or are anti-American / anti-English. I guess I am biased because I kno...

The upcoming volume on the German Cross Holders of the Polizei Division and Units should be extremely interesting and a must have to obtain. Relative to other divisions / units / personalities there is very little in detail avaliable on the SS-Polizei. Mark is one of those very rare authors/research...

I got my copy a couple of days ago. Haven't completed reading it yet but at this stage I am very impressed. Congratulations Prit and thanks.

Last week I received, direct from Scott Revell, the book "Retake Arnhem Bridge". In one word: the book is EXCELLENT. It is a top quality publication, very well researched and written with good photos. The book is obviously based on the battles around Arnhem in 1944, but what makes it speci...

Agree 100% with Michael Kenny
