    This is the reality........... time waits for no man, not even the great ones.

    I was completely unprepared for the email from Martin informing me that Siegfried had passed. Especially considering the letter on my desk that I had just gotten from him.

    Siegfried was a good man, a kind friend, and he will be greatly missed.

                          Hello guys,
                          Phil, thank you for your answer! Thats really sad to hear with Mr. Eisele... If I'm right, he was one of the last living KCH that was awarded with the Nahkampfspange in Gold?
                          Regrads,
                          Siegbert

                          P.S.: I wrote him a letter in the first week of november, do you think that maybe he answer it and now the letter is on the way to me?

                              That is sad news, we had corresponded for some years about his service with Radfahr Abteilung 1 and a good friend of his, also a RKT.
