<HTML>Dear All,
Ten years ago I was spending a wonderful summer in Oberstdorf. In the terminal, for those taking the cable tram up to the top of one of the taller mountains, I came across a booklet at the coffee shop. It was about some of the lesser known German Navy heros of WWII, mostly serving on surface ships. Whether or not this book was for domestic or foreign consumption was unclear. I have a hunch, however, that many of the Omi's and Opa's of today may not be so PC about their fairly recent past.
Regards,
