hey those are great thanks for the link, some of those pictures feel very personal and as stated before, they show things you don't normally get to see such as the military funerals on the front.

Interesting pictures - very different than the sanitized type you usually see.

Thanks for posting this link. The site will be of great use. Very interesting (and educational) about the realities of war in the east.

Thanks Martin
Many sobering images but certainly felt is if they were a personal soldiers account of the Hell on the Eastern Front.
