A lovley A4 sized photos of Engelbert Kainzinger DKiG 1945 mit Ost.
Just a small handful of additions this year. Got some others I plan on adding later. Also have new ones coming through the mail, hope to have them some time this week.
Hello guys, it's been quite a long time.
In last fall, I exchanged letter with Mr. Broch been a while. Along with some questions and photos as usual.
As you know he's 98 years old and stuffs(letter, photos etc.) can be make hard to him, like it did to others veterans. For that reason I asked a question to Mr. Broch that if he want stop receving stuffs. If he want, I wanted to be sure about it for help him as much as I can.
And he had ask to stop sending stuffs. He told me it's hard in his age. Some guys may have sent some stuffs to him in the meantime, but I hope (at least us) we respect his intention and just let him rest.
I'm heartily sorry that I couldn't say it immediately. Some of you know I have health problems and for that reason I can't come here often as I used to.
Anyway, everone be careful about the COVID-19. May the good health be with you always.
p.s. I use english rarely these days. So I wasn't good at english originally, but it could be worse now. lol.
Good to hear from you, Han.
Our best wishes for health to you too, young friend
Best regards.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Good to hear from you, Han. Thank you for letting us know about Mr. Boch. I hope you see improvement with your health soon. I've got a chronic illness, so I know dealing with health junk can sap a lot out of you. Stay tough.

I picked up his memoirs from Amazon a few months ago. Once I finish my current reading project, I plan on tackling his book next. Interesting young man, for sure. Later in life he became friends with a few of the men he shot.
