Hallo Heinz, hoffentlich nicht allzu kalt in SH. Die Bilder die wir hier haben kannst Du, denke ich, gerne kopieren. Es waere natuerlich super wenn Du mit uns Deine Bilder teilen tusts da wir einen immensen Mangel an Bildern da wir versuchen eine Bilder bibliothek zu erstellen welches BAOR und BFG dokumentiert.

Heinz

Hertzlich wilkommen but you are no stranger to the site (as kleiner Jimmy you made some invaluable contributions to the founder of the site which are to be found elsewhere)

Steve and I have been working seriously on the history of the British Army in Schleswig Holstein for the past two years which will appear on this site in due course

Will publish a short summary soon and will contact you direct with more details

We are still looking for the location of Headquarters 11 Armoured Division in the May 1945-January 1946 period which could have been in the Rendsburg area possibly in a Schloss or country house.
