That's very admirable, keeping the memory of your grandfather and great-uncles like that, and you're very fortunate that you know where they're resting. My Grandfather Max served and was mortally wounded aboard the U-52, so we don't even know where he's buried (he was brought to hospital in Kiel and passed away about two weeks later). The U-52 made it through the war and was scuttled after.

So now you know why my screen name is Max-U52, to keep his memory alive.

That to is so very admirable Gary...

An amazing thing you're doing there, Gary. Very commendable.

Ralf is the one doing all the work, going to visit his relatives every year. I would if I could, but there's a lot of water in between Detroit and Kiel.

Make sure and give my respects to your grandfather the next time you go, Ralf.

I will do it , is good to know the fallen is not forgotten and still loved

My Grandfather was a Oscha in the Regiment Germania , Member in the SS since Dez 32 , Otto Kumm was his first Battallion Commander , two Brothers from him are killed in Action on one day near Charkov Febr 43 Totenkopf Division , one Brother was in the DAK , was coming home disappled , lost a Arm and a eye , my Opa and one more Brother was coming home , three Sisters are died in Mannheim as the Bomber drops the Bombs

My american Grandfather survived Korea , Died in Vietnam 72 as a MSG in a Jeep accident , near Hue we are told , i remember my Opa as a five year old boy

If somewhere of you on this timeframe this year on his way , let me know

Salute to you all

It is possible that my tanks will be on display at an event around that time but we will hold the traditional silence in respect to the fallen and if other exhibitors comply an rc tank gun salute in honour to the veteran/survivor

Not a patch on some of your plans but it is a small token of respect for the fallen and the veteran
