        Wow! Thanks for all the great comments, guys! Much appreciated.

        Glad to hear you all enjoyed looking at the scans and reading the write up on Buss's military and combat career. I really like this set for many reasons, and I'm extremely glad I was able to acquire it. It's great that both books were able to stay together (it also makes researching much easier.)

        I can't say I've seen many SBs or WPs to M.G.Ski Brigade "Finnland." Outside of what I found on "Lexicon der Wehrmacht" and the other usual sites there doesn't seem to much more detailed information readily available. I'd really like to learn more on the Brigades activities from 1943 through 1945 so if anyone can help point me towards some books or websites with more info I'd be most appreciative.

        Ian - great Soldbuch! But then I've told you that already Nice to see the different ways that the unit stamps were de-nazified, and a rather impressive list of awards

        Thanks so much for posting it and contributing to the thread.

        Again, glad you guys like the books and thanks for your comments! And if anyone else has any M.G.Bt.4/Ski Brigade "Finnland" SBs, WPs or award docs, please feel free to post them here.
