Hello All, I have revamped the Civil War section so it is a little more understandable, not much info but a little is better than none. A new section has been added as well called Officers of the 3rd Reich (this is why I was asking for the pictures) I have started putting this together so people can get an understanding on who these men were and why they held the positions they did, basically a short story with a photo. There will definately be one for the Allies as well (just in case you were wondering). This section is under the drop down menu called German Officers. Erwin Rommel is the only story at the moment, more to go up tomorrow. Happy Hunting. Thankyou all for the support you have given and shown in the creation of this website since its birth on 28th October 2003, it has come along way since then and still has a way to go before it will be finished. http://www.nzmrangloboerwar.org.nz Regards Leigh in Hokitika, Best Place in New Zealand kiwi_anzac35@yahoo.co.nz Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com
