Michael,

Welcome to the forum. I would be very interested in seeing your pictures. Especially since you can supply some background info on the photos themselves etc.

Regards,

Gordon,

thank you to welcome me to the forum.
My father wrote a diary ( nearly every day, five to six sentences per day ) from 28th february 1955 up to december 1958. But I can only share by email, not by posting.
In my opinion a rich memory of the first days of the young Federal Republic of Germany and of the young BW.

Do you know the nickname of the Andernach battalion?

I will not sell these dox but I would like to share them with people who are interested in.

regards
Michael

Hi Michael,

Thanks for joining!

Your father's journal sound like an incredible source of information! I would encourage you to make copies and perhaps turn it into an eBook. This sort of information is very difficult for historians and collectors to find. You could edit out personal comments if you felt your father would like it that way. I am sure early BW enthusiasts like us would find a lot of value in the daily observations.
