Jock Auld Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Guys, A large book with a lot of propagada within. In fact it would not be a surprise if it had NS captions, the whole style harks back to times past in my opinion. Still it has a lot of pics and some are even cool, I like the Sturmgewehr 44 picture. Not my bag but better than destroyed I suppose! Jock
Bernhard H.Holst Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Hello Jock. More good stuff. Picture with Sturmgewehr equipped men I believe were members of the "Betriebskampfgruppen". Militia type units raised to protect manufacturing and similar facilities against the Kapitalists. They were mainly armed with weapons from the former Wehrmacht surrendered in 1945. You are right changing some wording and such would crank the whole caboodle back... Bernhard H. Holst
Gordon Craig Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Jock, Great photos. Best picture I have seen so far of a pilot wearing very early flight gear. Regards, Gordon
Jock Auld Posted October 2, 2014 Author Posted October 2, 2014 Gordon, It is quite well made book no doubt as a propaganda tool. There are a lot of images not for the most part military but still nice. Have you anything to swap, doesn't have to be fancy? Jock
Gordon Craig Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 Jock, I'll look. I have a lot of doubles, triples etc. Regards, Gordon
