All units from different countries can be included in due time. When we can find the time, and get enough response from enthusiast people who like to contribute to the site with information, scans etc., this site could grow into a marvelous reference work on World War II military history.</p> <p>Please, contact us with your opinion about this initiative, or when you think you can contribute in any way.</p> <address>Hans Houterman<br>&<br>Jeroen Koppes</address> </div> <script src="/include/all.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </body> </html>
