nice to see they take all this stuff to afghanistan

btw, the "patrone" in the grenade was a 8x57 IS case, many times one of the early steal cases not good enough for battlefield ammo. they had have many problems with steel for cartridge cases so go first time only for blanks and similar.

interesting stuff, remember the book from leon degrelle where he mention a belgian WW 1 vet who was wearing his british WW 1 decoration next to a WW 2 iron cross on the eastfront.

I think you mean the Litthauisches Ulanen Regiment Nr. 12 in Insterburg, then he retired bevor 1914.

Do you have the date of birth and death? Seems to be he live in Bayern around 1930 and go back then to Berlin, must have been 70 or older then.

I start collecting old Baedecker's guidebook's last year and got a Southern Italy book with a address stamp from Generaloberarzt a.D. Dr. W. Krause in it. The stamp show that he live in " Apfelkam Post: Achenm?hle bei Rosenheim in Oberbayern". anyway this was his place of residence around 1929 when the baedeker was printed. some times later the address was changed with a pencil and the new written by hand was: Berlin - Charlottenburg 4, Dahlmann - Str. 13".

I believe that this happen bevor WW 2 but the street allways exist in Berlin http://maps.google.de/maps?f=q&hl=de&a...mp;t=h&z=16

and is in an old well-to-do area of the city.

Hope that someone will have more about this doctor, thank you for your input
