Hello,
I just want to let you know that my publisher has now printed the 4th revised edition of my book.
It was sold out since three years, but today I got the big package from the printshop
These codes were used to cover the manufacturers names on weapons, ammunition and every other kind of military equipment like parts of airplanes, vehicles, ships or radio equipment from 1920 until 1945.
The book contains more than 500 pages with about 11.000 codes, is sorted in two ways (after codes and after company-names), contains ALL code systems (abbreviations, number-codes, letter-codes, LDO-numbers for medals & insignias and the RZM-numbers for NSDAP- & SS-equipment). The official list with letter codes ends with "ozz", but I was able to add three pages of later codes. The book covers the background and the development of the code systems. I have found many original documents in archives to reproduce the way of the development step by step.
It is written bilingual in German and English language!
The prices incl. shipping (registered mail) are:
Europe: € 38,00
World: $US 46.00
Payment is accepted by Paypal, bank-transfer or cash (EUR and USD). No cheques!
The book can be ordered directly from me: [email protected]
Also I can sign the book
With best wishes from Germany
Michael

Looks very interesting and congratulations! Does it include covert foreign manufacturers in the 1920s and 30s as well as manufacturers in occupied territories during WW2?

Hello, yes, it covers ALL companies that got a code. There are a lot of companies from occupied countries that have worked for the German armament industry. The foreign manufacturers before WW2 are not listed in the book because at that time they did not use a code. With best wishes, Michael
