Yes, the interview was recently made! I recommend everyone to read (translate with Google) the interview as it is, as Nicolai says; very interesting!

Weird. I sent him recently a copy of his book and he replied within days with a letter, my book signed and with a nice dedication, plus a signed photo and a copy of a newspaper article about him receiving the RK.
A few days later a friend from Germany also wrote to him and he replied within 3 days.
Both aforementioned communications took place this March.

Carius interview

Is it possible to get an English translation for this recent interview with Otto Carius ?
I'm guessing some refers to ' Tigers in the Mud ', but would love to read the text.

Thanks for link. Not connecting. With my lack of computer ability and the useless broadband i suspect that is the problem.
