    As a collector of Waffenrocks, I've been patiently waiting for this book to get published. From the looks of the photo posted, this is going to be an excellent book! I am anxiously awaiting to see what photos and Waffenrocks are in the book. Payment is already on the way for my copy of the book.

              Unfortunately the forum limts make it impossible to show a clear image of the large format pages. They do suggest something that you will see in the book.

              Thanks,

                I liked the proof Neil when I saw it at Rogers. How did the army para photo replicate? Looked pretty good from the xerox I saw.

                  Eric,

                  Your photo of the Army Fallschirmjager in his waffenrock sporting his Fallschirmjager Badge came out quite well. Although I have diligently been looking for a similar photo for over a year, I have not found one. We greatly appreciate your having lent the image to us for the book.

                      I just recently learned about this book. I am also a Waffenrock lover. This book looks GREAT!
                      I can't believe how expensive the books are getting, but I'm not going to let that stop me from getting this book.

                        Benders' website is now open for business on this title

                        http://www.bender-publishing.com/
                        At Rathau on the Aller, the CO of 5th Royal Tanks advanced on foot to take a cautious look into the town before his tanks moved in. He encountered one of his own officers, a huge Welshman named John Gwilliam who later captained his country's rugby team, 'carrying a small German soldier by the scruff of his neck, not unlike a cat with a mouse.' The Colonel said: 'Why not shoot him?' Gwilliam replied in his mighty Welsh voice: 'Oh no, sir. Much too small.'

                          I just ordered mine this morning from Bender. I have 3 Waffenrocks, Infantry, Signals, and Cavalry, right now. I do have 1 em Luft flak if you need a picture for the luft book.
