Battle of Leros

[pittaway]

Greetings from Durban, South Africa.
I do book on Special Forces, see the website www.dandy.co.za
We are currently finishing off the 2nd edition of LRDG RHODESIA.
The Rhodesian Squadron of the LRDG was decimated on Mt Clidi, Leros.
Does anyone have any photos from the German side of this battle.
Please even one new, previously unpublished example will be welcomed.
Thanks very much, Jonathan pittaway@iafrica.com

The only German photos that I have seen from Leros are in Anthony Rogers' book "Churchill's Folly: Leros and the Aegean." Quite a few in the book are from the German veterans who fought there.

The German wartime magazine "Signal" did a small photo spread on the battle with pictures of German troops in tropical uniforms scaling the hills to do battle.
