I was in Mengen, 1./LAR 3, then JaboG34 at Fliegerhorst Memmingerberg in Memmingen, Sicherungsstaffel 'S'. Stetten am Kalten Arsch was about as close as I got to Sigmaringen. All the best Andreas

As well as military barracks, e.g. the barracks in Sigmaringen which were named after him in 1961. He is viewed as a hero today. All the best Andreas

Then I can only suggest you inform yourself about the conditions on the Eastern Front, for both sides. The war in the desert was not boy's own fun, it was still a war, and people got killed, maimed, and diseased in large numbers. But in terms of treatment of POWs and mutual respect, it was vastly above what went on elsewhere. Just compare the end in Tunis to the end in Stalingrad. The war in Italy was no picknick either, and anything I have read on Normandy suggests it was a deeply unpleasant place during the battle, and that is without anyone shooting at you. Rommel's quote about El Alamein refers to the barrage which opened on Axis positions at the start of the battle. It was the heaviest barrage in the west since WW I. He would not have seen anything like it in the east either. All the best Andreas

I think the wish is the father of the thought there, but I would love to be wrong about it. All the best Andreas

Ask him on the TDI Forum. One error in the first quote, looks like a typo. SFL should be 1,834 for end June. Note these are German AFV numbers, not Soviet. The second quote is verbatim, from having a quick glance. I used Töppel to correct much of the Wikipedia article on Prokhorovka. I have just checked and found that since then some Russian nationalist has changed it back to a totally worthless description that has nothing to do with the battle. Why Wikipedia is **** All the best Andreas
