        CORRECT. That is the only answer I was seeking.

        The man speaking into the microphone is Erich Weinert.

        Your turn.

          Jon - Thanks for the interesting question involving the picture of who the persons are...

          So whose turn is it???
          Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did. Quote - Sophie Scholl - White Rose resistance group

                  I'll throw a small one out if no one else is:

                  --on some West German bridges, what were the small, square cut-outs that appeared on certain areas of the bridge's steel I-beams?

                          Nope...old infantryman with several years in Berlin and West Germany. Also still remember the European Fire Fighting Kit that was issued to every company sized unit.
