Re: Incredible price for a photocopy of a FB
Hi Rudi
I didn't translate all the German text in the listing but a quick search showed he was: "General of the Waffen-SS and SS-Obergruppenfuhrer commander of the SS spiritual capital the castle at Wewelsburg" And flew quite the variety of aircraft. Just what I found, obviously some one really wanted it no matter that it is a copy.Hope it's helps Vince... |

Re: Incredible price for a photocopy of a FB
Maj Richard Taubert was the Kdr of II./KG54 from Oct 1st 1942 till Mar 28th 1943 and at the same time he supposed to be "2nd Burghauptmann" of the Wewelsburg with the rank of SS-Obergruppenführer en General der Waffen-SS???

Re: Incredible price for a photocopy of a FB
These offers from the provider in ebay I also noticed already.
Many of the copies are mostly bought by the same person when you looking at the ebay-reviews from the seller. It's crazy what the seller (former book author) with these copies in recent months has earned a money! |
