1st of 2018 but I think something is wrong

[Angel Farré]

This is my first Soldbuch of 2.018, but I think something is wrong with it, normally my Soldbuchs are brown and with a beautiful eagle standing proud in it, but this one is blue and the damm bird looks like she want to fly away, what happen here?

And look the guy has a rare uniform and the eagle also looks she want to run away, only I can id the ribbon for the EK II and the ribbon bar for the Ostmedaille.

My God what mistake I made?, are the Soldbuchs mutating?

[Angel Farré]

Back from the doctor, news are good and bad.

Good ones, the Soldbuchs are not mutating.

Bad ones, I have been infected by a new disease, the blue fever, now I also need Luftwaffe pieces to control my illness. What I can I do, just keep going and now search for LW pieces from members of the Flak who received the EK II and the Krimschild.

[Angel Farré]

No the whole book, as I am starting with LW I still have a lot to learn about how to read it (still need to learn also a lot about Heer pieces) so any help is welcomed.

He rose from Kanonier to Wachtmeister, not bad for a Lufty guy.

[Angel Farré]

Units he served in, unlike Heer pieces here are ordered chronologically and not separated by field or training units, helps the research for sure.

[Angel Farré]

The pages for clothing and equipment are huge, and look like he received tome tropical pieces, surely for service in southern Russia.

His leaves, a nice time at home to forget the war, if he can.

Now only need to learn how to decipher it so help me.

Not the first Lufwaffe one you have bought but seem to think one of those actually had a brown cover?

What are you stuck on?

[Angel Farré]

Ian, I trade my LW pieces some time ago and now I have been infected again, but I want to narrow my interest to Flak Krimkampfers, so added to 1 Panzer Division, Heer DKiG winners, CCC winners and all that I fall in love with...
