Re: Photo of 88mm Flak Battery or Cannon for upcoming book
Hi,
You could try buying an old WWII or pre-war postcard from e-bay. I don't think there are any copyright restrictions to publishing images like that.
Might I suggest you find an image where the men are dressed warmer - something more appropriate for February weather! Also Flak-Abteilung 436 was an ortsfest unit - i.e. immobile - and the 88mm guns were mounted in concrete.
(By the way, I wouldn't translate 'Abteilung' - but if you had to, then 'battalion' would come closest, not 'battery' (= Batterie) which is what the Abteilung was composed of).
Good luck with your book.
Best wishes,
Karl
