Hi Martin,

Thanks for posting the Gang photo and great to see so many of the old boys still there , especially Eberhard Heder , Hermann Eckhardt and August Kaminski.

Artur is looking very well and looks on fine form as usual which is good he's a great guy . I can't see my great friend Georg Bose on the photos did he not attend ?

Sorry i couldn't make it this year hopefully i'll be back next year but a Trip to Narwa and the Korps Steiner has had to take precedence !!

regards

Thanks for sharing the photos. They are outstanding.

I'll start saving for next year. I might not be able to afford the plane fare, but maybe I can buy a round of drinks !!!!

......... then again looking at those boys, maybe not

Dear Gentlemen,

Having collected some WW2 German militaria over time, I have made a personal project for myself, which is to meet KC Holders in person and hopefully to have a simple photo and an autograph with them.

1. would this be too much to ask?
2. would you know any of them based in the UK (quite unlikely, but i still have to ask)
3. how would I be able to obtain their address, and permission to meet them?
4. Who can I write to? Or where can I get more information from?
5. I am not able to speak any German, but I would do my very best to try and communicate and make an effort at the very least to make them feel comfortable.

Please advice. It is my personal project and I hope if this takes off, I will be able to share with the community. Thank you Gentlemen.

Sincerely,
Mil.
