The member in question has now been banned. Unfortunate that warnings often are not given the due respect they deserve...
Aha, the person made the point that my HJ regulation book is in microfilm from the National Archives in the US and from the Bundesarchiv.
Schau, schau. That is what I was looking for. But this person did not seem ever in his posts here to include extracts from these
nice documents.

Mr. Norkus suggested thus in his critical assessment of my historical ability:
Quote
I am frankly surprised that a historian does not agree [about the need for citations, pp]and instead prefers to resign himself to what militaria discussion forums have mostly become.
Unquote.
For those whose interest has been aroused by certain statements here, I offer this nugget with thanks to the fine moderators.
Chicago-Style Citation Quick Guide
The Chicago Manual of Style presents two basic documentation systems: (1) notes and bibliography and (2) author-date. Choosing between the two often depends on subject matter and the nature of sources cited, as each system is favored by different groups of scholars.
The notes and bibliography style is preferred by many in the humanities, including those in literature, history, and the arts. This style presents bibliographic information in notes and, often, a bibliography. It accommodates a variety of sources, including esoteric ones less appropriate to the author-date system.
The author-date system has long been used by those in the physical, natural, and social sciences. In this system, sources are briefly cited in the text, usually in parentheses, by author’s last name and date of publication. The short citations are amplified in a list of references, where full bibliographic information is provided.
Aside from the use of notes versus parenthetical references in the text, the two systems share a similar style. Click on the tabs below to see some common examples of materials cited in each style, including examples of common electronic sources. For numerous specific examples, see chapters 14 and 15 of the 16th edition of The Chicago Manual of Style.

Unfortunately, we had another member who lacked good sense and decided that the forum was his own playpen and he would ignore our rules. I was amazed what occurred on this thread since I turned off the computer last night. As I read the new posts, I was getting ready to hit the ban button but Carl beat me to it. Well done.

Life called me away from the party also....sorry I missed it Bob.
Well Done Carl

I also found this diploma of some kind, which, I guess is some form of accreditation for the study of German history, material culture, military artifacts and such.
Ergo the former member's strict standards about scholarly citations and so forth. And hence his bona fides to levy a critique against my scholarly work.

As it happens, I also own this book, and have done so for thirty years....
Listen to this while you read this thread and your heart will sing.
