Re: Two large German collections up for sale!
Are the unit histories in English or as I am guessing German?
Also curious as to the price of the Mtn Div items.

Re: Review: Hitler's Spanish Legion
Seb;
Thanks for the link.
Another mbr on another forum mention that the second 'draft' was not a complete Division for Division exchange. That is correct.
The second draft came to the front piecemeal.....by march battalions. Over a period of time the original soldiers were rotated out.
