Re: German Abbreviation

Gentlemen

To calm things down, I can confirm that David P Williams is not only a man of standing (still PC?) but a published author and not an avid collector of militaria. I believe that his questions are in support of a proposed book, the questions arising he has been unable (like many on this Forum) to solve.

Regards

Chris

Re: German Abbreviation

Good morning Chris.

Thank you for your professional and kind comments.

I am still in the service, less than 5 years now to retirement.

You are correct with the proposed book. I hope to have the Becker book finished this year, but it has been on the back boiler for some 6 years now due to work commitments.

My knowledge concerning Luftwaffe ground units and organisation is somewhat limited and the forum is strongly represented with many experts and enthusiasts whose knowledge is second to none. Perhaps you, or others, here could give me some pointers as to relevant books or other written sources.

I felt somewhat slighted by the 'money' comment, but as far as I am concerned the matter is now closed. Thank you again for your comments.

David

Re: German Abbreviation

Retirement eh? I resigned Jun 12, finished Jul 12 and 3 days later started new job (out of the RAF for good Nov 12). I had qualified for my pension before you ask! Not been sacked yet-there is life outside the service/Services!

Re: German Abbreviation

Good to hear there is life after the service, as I joined at 19 and know nothing else.

Not sure what I'll do afterwards but I'm sure something will come up.

All the best,
