[genstab]

Ah, thank you, Dieter. Possibly another mystery- there are so many with athe commanders.
Glad to have you back. Your friendliness and wit are as valuable to us all as your excpertise.
By the way, do you know whether volume 8 of Die Generale des Heeres is published yet?

Have a wonderful holiday season. Ours commences with our Thanksgiving Day this Thursday.

Best regards, Bill/Genstab
PS- currently I am working for the Dept. of Veterans Affairs. A secure job is precious considering the shape this nation is in at present.

01.05.1943 KG XIII AK
07.09.1943 FR

Straube HPA file has
22.07.1943 KG LXXXIV AK - a typo for LXXIV AK I asume and an example of a mistake in a primary source!
