And I should follow that up with a general purpose apology for all whom I've given the distinct appearance of slighting through my slothful ways in the correspondence department. It's no excuse, but I am always inundated with e-mails- mostly with polite requests for information on all manner of pers...

Hi, Richard. John Moore alerted me to your post, and sure enough- the e-mail address to which you kindly sent the Hanke items is temporarily defunct, dead in the water, kaputt, finito, dead as Dillinger. I may always be reached via the following: axisbio@yahoo.com Sincerely, und mit brennender Sorge...

Just started For Whom the Bell Tolls by Hemingway (last read it 16 years ago); Also a few dozen pages into Armageddon: The Battle for Germany, 1944-1945 by Max Hastings. And the usual biographical muck on Nazi leaders (Gauleiter autobiographies, the multitude of Goebbels' biographies & translati...

It's terrible that such a valuable and impartial research resource seems to be imploding.

Right.

Absolutely unnecessary, unwarranted, and quite disappointing in light of your claim that you would move on from this sort of thing.

Cordially,

She's back up and running, hopefully for good this time.

Erik~ Apologies for the long delay in this reply, as well as the fact that I don't have any information on the person you referenced. It's a crap shoot in most cases, at least for the lower-ranking, more obscure fellows (unless they held commissioned rank, high awards, or documented involvement in/i...

I agree that there is absolutely, positively no excuse for such "embellishment" and twisting of the facts, regardless of the constant cry (that I hear SO often in my own home) of "Michael, it's JUST A MOVIE!"); the one instance in film that horrifies me most is the church burning...

Just a friendly reminder...

I'm going to make an extra effort [emphasis mine / MdM]not just to leave grudges outside but to mend fences in 2008.

I wish everyone well in the coming year.

Now, I am off out to tie one on...

I hope you get your hands on more of Mr. Yerger's titles, and soon, Tom. It was a pivotal moment when, in 1997, I defied my wife and shelled out $49.95 for Allgemeine-SS . I'd been studying the SS for sixteen years at that point, but that one book propelled my interest and knowledge forward to an in...

Thanks, gentlemen, for the extremely kind comments. In the next day or two, I'll work on posting some facts and anecdotes regarding the development of this-- hobby, bizarre obsession, whatever you want to call it.

Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Thank you, Jason and John. I'm very honored and flattered at your comments. You've both played important roles in whatever growth I've undergone in my research, and I'm very grateful. The list of others I'd like to acknowledge is very long, and I'll get around to a detailed listing here... one of th...

Wish I could see it, but this piece of junk that only barely qualifies as a computer can't make heads or tails of Youtube. I want to reciprocate the sentiment in the first post. Before I discovered Jason's site in November 1996- found it the very first time I went online- my "research" (as...

I don't think that's really necessary, but I thank you for the suggestion. I'm usually pretty open minded, but not on this issue. Even if I may have misinterpreted something in all that material I cut and posted, the most important fact remains. It's confirmed to varying degrees here, it's confirmed...
