I need to know who gets use out of my postings on the Waffen SS Generals topic--also on the American Heroes topic and other topics like those.

Reason why im asking for feedback is--I only have 3 more W-SS Bios completed--all info gathered from several newer books that were being sold at barnes and Nobles. Of these several books--three-cannot be reordered-and all of these books I was gathering this info from--were stolen by a College Student wearing a backpack. This happened sometime yesterday at Barnes and Nobles.

The idiots that work there--just let him walk out of the store--with about $350.00 worth of books.

Anyway--unless I can afford to buy all these books at somepoint online--if the ones that are out of print--can be found, I cannot continue the Waffen SS Officers bios--because of this theft.

Sorry to hear about the theft. If you want to see if you can get the books for a lower price you can check Ebay or Half.com, or Amazon's used books. I've gotten some and they come in pretty good condition.

Thank you Grag, Peppy, Duce, Erich and Doc--that makes me feel better.

Yep--unfortunately--these all were stolen from the local Barnes and Nobles bookstore and yesterday when I went back there--I asked if they figured out the totall lost and they said it was more like $400.00 just in military and or history books im incensed

Two booke were by Mark Yerger--the others I cant remember who the authors were. I was gathering this info from Yergers books as well as books published by Greenhouse and Stackpole publishers--all are difficult books to get on the open book market.

I sent an email to Schiffer inquiring about both volumes of Yergers book--so far no reply yet.

Greg--thank you for the link--ill check it out and see if I can find them there. Hopefully I can get at least some there-- [img]smile.gif[/img]

Also--as I couldnt afford all of these books--I was using Barnes and Nobles as like a library of sorts. Here i was buying other books instead of these when I had the chance. Two more recent additions are: Bill Mauldins Army and The German Army in World War 2.

Many thanks for the bios support--I didnt dream they were read more than by just a few. Ill see what I can do to get the more important titles somewhere off the net. Now that I have 30 something done--I would like to finish them off. Eventually there should be around 130 or so of them.
