    Two more hints: This Samourai ancestry Admiral was more than the Governor of the Occupied Dutch West Indies, he was for instance the man who Commanded the forces that Attacked Pearl Harbor.... After his arrest by the British, he was handed over tho the Americans, but he died of an heart attack in 1947 before he was even sentenced.

    Which area from France was annexed to Germany during WWII? They are two regions but The exact term of one is NOT "Lorraine" because only a part of this region was annexed.

    Well Alsace is correct, but not the term Lorraine . "Alsace Lorraine" is an Historically wrong name.
    You'll agree that only Metz was annexed not Nancy. So what is the area around Mezt called ? Hint: it's also a river and a famous wine.

    Moselle?

    Also in Gau-map 1941 there is Moselleland or something like that but not too much into searching those things...

    That's it Kai! The correct name is Alsace-Moselle or Alsace-Moselland. The Alsacians and the Moselaners were incorporated in the German army. Many of these brave men who did not asked for anything (unless those who volunteered) died, including after the war in Siberia , because Stalin considered them as German Pows. It's all yours!
