Yes two signed pictures provided by myself and named to me + a little note explaining the very long delay.

[Bjorn S]

Hardegen replied to me within 5 days!
But unfortenately no picture, so I will sent him one to sign.

[Nidhøggr]

And Hardegen replied to me within 3 days
Yes, he hasn´t any pics, so you have to send one with the letter!

(SiMä, i´ll reply your mail later... )

Hello Siebert,
I have recently received a positive return from Reinhard Hardegen dated 10-2-09. I usually provide any photos to all KC holders for signature. Also sent return envelope and 10 plus EURO for postage. If the hobby continues to provide convienence to veterans then those that finally get around to contacting them might have a chance in getting a better return. He thanked me for my kind letter as I see he is very busy with requests around the world.
Hope this Helps!

how do you guys find the address of these veterans ? i think it would be interesting to write a couple letters to a few soldiers who won the KC .. WWII has been a huge obsession for me since i was a child when my great uncle Aurthur Wiseman who was on the HMS Hood used to tell me stories after i did a project in school on him ... i currently quite a collection of items and have a few prints of german aircraft autographed by german aces and a couple of books autographed as well .. i hvae obtained them from my GF's father who is currently a major in the german airforce .. i think it would be great to write a few KC recipriants to add to my items . if anyone has an addresses could you please email me (nismonewf(AT)nf.sympatico.ca) or pm me through here ..

thanks
