    Guten Tag!

    My name is Frank, I am registred sine 2010 and never wrote a word but read a lot. Now it is time to change that.

    I am from Verden, 20km south of Bremen. I served for 12 years in the German Army one of my very time consuming hobbies is military history. Main focus is the end of the war on Northern Germany, the Seven Years War and the the Cold War in the NORTHAG and LANDJUT sector until 1990.

    Currently I am working on a documentation of the combat history of the 2. Marine-Infanterie-Division in April/May 1945 (hope to get finished in 2021).

    I will be happy to share my knowledge and I would be happy to get some open questions answered.

    I am offer battle field tours in Rethem and other sites here and supporting exhibitions with my military collection.

    That´s it for now.

    kindest regards
    Frank

    Hi Frank
    I used to be stationed at Fallingbostel, so I know your part of the world pretty good!
