Ref. the last image "SS Galicia newspaper "To Battle".
Your translations isn´t correct because the german name of this weekly is "Zum Sieg" as is the ukrainian caption "До перемоги" = "To the victory".

Thanks a lot Askold for the Galizien magazine and History1 for correction.
I remember to read somewhere that RONA or Kaminski brigade had their own printing house (if that is a correct word). I wonder if they publish a neewssheet of their own.

As Lasse wrote on 20th of July that Swedish SS volunteers didn´t had a newspaper/newssheet of their, neither Finnish. But some magazines dedicated their numbers to Finnish SS volunteers, like "Hakkapeliitta" on year 1943, when the battallion returned back to home.The magazine wasn´t pro-facist.

Thanks Semenov,
I am still surprised how many newspapers/magazines existed for foreign troops. I am still looking for Estonians, Latvians. Croatians etc.

What are soldiers reading? Looks like its title is "Eesti Sona", but I wasn´t able to find anything about it.

Hope you don´t mind that I answer your question though I´m not Estonian.
They are reading "Eesti Sõna":
https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eesti_S%C3%B5na
A rough google translation
The "Estonian Word" was in Estonia in 1941-1944 (during the German occupation), and later in 1945. " In April, a newspaper published in Berlin. The leaf began appearing under the name "City Journal". This page provided Haridusdirektoorium out and publishing the Estonian Newspaper. During the first years was the chief editor of the daily newspaper Albert Rocky, since 1943 August Oina
Dont know if this newspaper has anything to do with "Vaba Eesti Sõna [Free Estonian Word]" from 1949:

Thanks again Clement :thumbsup:
For Kalmucks 8O . How do you find them?

"Balming" for Flemish. Supposed to been published in Germany after September 1944 when Belgia has been already liberated. But in the example seems to have a month of July. Who is the Sturmbannfuhrer in the picture?

"Volk en Staat" for Flemish. In the middle is the symbol of Vlaamsch National Verbond (V.N.V) but also at left the runes of SS.

The Flemisch Sturmbannfuhrer is Van de Wiele Jef leader of DeVlag.

'Volk en Staat' newspaper is the VNV party newspaper and this one is a special because Ustuf. Tollenaere Reimond died at the eastern front. He was the former leader of the DM/ZB militia. The militia of the VNV party.

Wim
Any information about Flemisch in German service (Waffen SS, OT, NSKK, Kriegsmarine, DRK, ...) during WWII is welcome.

Thanks Wim for your information.
Van de Wiele is wearing a black SS uniform, because he had a honorary rank in SS-Vlandeeren. Is that correct?

"Volk en Staat" has SS runes and sonnenraden symbols just because of this special issue, because of dead of Ustuf. Tollenaere Reimond.

Arto
