Feldgrau.com: Jason Pipes' Glossary of German Military Terms

I found this Glossary on Jason Pipes' Feldgrau site while doing some research. It seems useful so I am posting a link to it here for anyone who is not already familiar with it.

A good glossary, but very short on abbreviations.

There is another source online as well, but-you HAVE to be an invited member to the site in order to access it.

If anyone is having trouble with descriptions-please feel free to ask me-I can help with most of them. The only ones I have any trouble with are mainly dealing with Imperial stuff.
