NOT run of the mill stuff.Hi,not in all cases, often they are just a simple leutnant whose name is mentioned because he commanded a section, many Generals and super heroes have no mention while the simple fact that one was a company commander in the right place and time or Gefreiter who got an EK1 MAY have gotten you onto the list.As the reichsarchive books are (each) so very different in their formats, different volumes (for different battles) mentions very different kinds of men.It is VERY hit and miss, but if you ARE lucky enough to find a mention, it is pretty cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
