Great Thanks

Bjørn from Norway · #32

Hello!
I am not sure. My source says "He was a son of one of the most well known Arabic families." He stayed in Egypt from 1946, chairman of the short-lived Gaza government, moved to Lebanon in the mid 60s, then to Syria."
He was btw never in the SS, and therefor no leader in SS either.

Camarade Rouille,What have they done with my message about Parrington and Tsankov ???????? Anyway,,in french lenguage,you will find Brigadefuehrer Parrington mentionned in ''Les Waffen-SS'',Henri Landemer,Edit.Balland,1972.
Parrington never saw combat as an SS general,but stayed at his HQ at Hildesheim castlle ,busy with propaganda activities (like most of his men).
Brigadefuehrer Tsankov is mentionned in ''La SS internationale'' Historia Hors Serie 32,1974.....By now those must be kind of collector books and hard to find...
i'm waiting for more ingo about Muhammad Bey,do you have some ?
So the list is by now only from Ostubaf and up...OK.Why don't you mentionned belgian Ostubaf Lippert ?
Pour le camarade a l'ecusson LVF : i read the bio of Raybaud,but i was sure he died in a car crash in Argentine after the war....maybe i'm mistaken with another Charlemagne officer (maybe it was ostuf Bonnefoy..) Any info/confirmation ?????????
Salut !

I believe Brigadier Parrington should be taken away from the list. Take a look at e.g. this site or Adrian Weale's book on BFC:

Hi,
I take a look on this site, so as you I believe that Brigadier Leonard PARRINGTON has nothing to do in the list.

When I do find a name in a document like this, http://www.archives.gov/iwg/declassifie ... les-v.html , does this mean that they have a file about him at the National Archives????

According to a document I've found, see attachment, he served as a Fähnrich in the Estonian Army. But this document also shows another year of birth, not 1908 but 1918. So what could be the correct date???
