Questions On Some Westfeldzug Photos

[R MICHAEL]

Peter, it is no more puzzling than European collecters collecting US items. It's the "history" of the thing...

All the best!

Mike

Hello Mike,

It puzzles me a bit:
- Why as an American are you intrested in a westfeldzug photoalbum with picture taken in Belgium or of the Belgian army?
It is always nice ofcours if foreigners are intrested in my local history.

Cheers,
Peter

Hello Mike,

Good luck with collecting operation yellow photoalbums which are related to Belgium.

It is always nice that collectors from every part in this world are intrested in what happend in Belgium during those 18 days in May 1940.
Just a bit of information (that you perhaps allready know) 7500 Belgian soldiers lost their lives defending their country in that 18 day campagne. This might give you an idea about how fierce the fighting was in the little country we have.

Good reference-book: Mei 1940 by Peter Taghon it is a book available in French and Flemish but it is a picture book and images ofcours are the same in every language.

Cheers,
Peter
