Didn't think he could nauseate me more, but there it is. Mr. Harker: Don't forget "Axis Biographical Research". Due to the mere fact that it is a carefully researched, entirely fact-based enterprise, you should view it as another of your many enemies; so please, tell your "buddies&quo...

Just a quick note that I'm nearly done with the manuscript for Gauleiter: The Regional Leaders of the Nazi Party and Their Deputies (by myself and Andreas Schulz). There's just too much material to confine to just one volume, so the first volume will include all German Gauleiter and the second all p...

I wish I *had* received that subpoena. It's far more depressing to see that even his loudest threats are no more substantial than his nonexistent writing and research credentials.

Just occurred to me- it's been at least a few weeks since I spat out that Paul-f***ing-Harker is a repugnant clump of filth. So there it is. Even Jesus Christ would lose his cool with this rotten bastard...

Hello. Here is some basic data. Best wishes, ~ Mike Miller Schäfer, Johannes Hugo Robert SS-Brigadeführer / SS-Obersturmführer d. R. der Waffen-SS / M.d.R. * 14.12.1903 in Leipzig / Sachsen. + 28.04.1993 in Bielefeld. NSDAP-Nr.: 49 889 (Joined 13.01.1927) SS-Nr.: 1 523 (First joined with SS-Nr. 983,...

I am aware of that, Tom, and I salute the change of stance re: "D19". My comment referred only to the fact that by losing his place at AHF, he'd lost further credibility (well- can't lose what you never had, but you get my point) and another advertising venue. The "author" in que...

"Honor Denied" -- has anyone else thought that would be a great title for "The Great Compiler's" autobiography? With the subtitle- "... and rightfully so!", of course.

~ Mike

Bravo. Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!!! And what the Hell, "Bravo!!!" again.

Marcus Wendel removed the review of "D19" from his Axis History Factbook site a couple months ago.

Best,

Keep up the good work, Phylo. He deserves every bit of [lawful] vilification/damnation that can be thrown his way.

Sincerely,

I've just received my copy. Can only echo the praise already given here. It is extremely unlikely anyone will ever usurp Mark Yerger's position as the preeminent biographical historian of the Waffen-SS. Exquisite in every way- well-written, solidly researched, very interesting subject matter, lavish...

Your brain is fine. I only got that information by Googling "Directive 16" and "Hitler".

~ Mike

Actually, "Directive 16" was "Preparations for a landing operation against England" (i.e. the planned "Unternehmen Seelöwe; directive issued by Hitler 16. July 1940). I've never seen reference to a "Directive 19" until the book of the same name came along. "Sc...

Very, very interesting indeed. Do you know if there's any truth to the story of his murdering German POW's (after sharing smokes with them)? The movie ("Band of Brothers") tends to leave one hanging on that point. I wouldn't worry about their toes. I think they'd want to know the truth. As...

I never thought I'd see the day, but I've actually lost interest in the poor bastard.
