      Hello,

      i honestly dont know how i missed this thread!i must have been on vacation or something,i just found it when i was searching the site for RAD related threads!first off let me say david for someone who is not a "RAD collector" you have some very nice RAD items (i am jealous!)this is one of them, a very nice grouping,i will look through my files and see if i can find out anything about your obertsfeldmeiter,i think i have all of his units 4/171,171,177,W,W XVII,177,177,given his rank i am assumeing he was the abteilung fuhrer for these units,the 2 abteilung with the W designations means they were assigned to work on the westwall,also the first entry on page 6 is for him attending Reichsschule in potsdam (spandau) (RS)23.5.1937-28.8.1937,i will let you know if i can find anything else,i will also contact you via PM as i am interested in all the information i can get on this man,i am hopeing to create a list with as many details/pictures as i can find of high ranking and middle ranking RAD men,i have been working on the list with members of other forums and so far we have come up with a fairly complete list of the ranks of oberarbeitsfuhrer up to hierl for the years 1933-1943,i have pictures of 40 of these men from a period book to go along with their info,i will be posting the list of generals on this site as well when we get it done.

          Hi Yancy,

          Sorry I have only just caught up with this thread.

          Thanks for the additional info. If you would like some better scans please drop me a PM.

          Cheers,
          David.
          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.'
