In Memoriam: Another fine person and dear friend to all of us, Mark Yerger, has passed. He has contributed so much to the study of the leaders and personalities of the Waffen-SS; and a little hint to my fellow collectors: Mark was, by virtue of his sincere interest and enthusiasm toward them, a huge uplift to the morale and pride of those surviving SS leaders and men, who had been so reviled in their own land in the years following the war. Life is short; count your blessings, and be kind to your fellow man.
Attention Collectors: A friend and advanced collector was hit by a burglary in his residence recently. Pictured are some of the items stolen. If you see these, please contact me at kellyhicks@hotmail.com immediately. There is a reward for the recovery of the items or for information leading to a conviction in criminal court. Be vigilant, Thanks!
