Re: Hans Marseille's grave

There is a famous photo from 1954 of 'Mutti' Marseille visiting the sarcophagus of her son. Of course he was originally buried in an elaborate ceremony in 1942 at Derna, presided over by Kesselring, before his remains were moved to Tobruk. There is also a memorial plaque at his family grave site in Berlin. I visited Egypt in 1984 on a German passport, and the pro-German sentiments amongst the local population were very evident. A taxi driver made no bones about his reverential feelings for Hitler. I don't think there is any issue of 'anti-infidel' sentiment, or whatever you want to call it.
