The Generals of WWII

Acknowledgements

With the launch of this website I would like to thank all those people who over the years have been helpful to me.

This goes for my colleagues in various libraries putting up with my never-ending request for sources.

Also to the members of various World War II forums and mailing list who have been so kind to answer my questions regarding generals.

A special thanks goes to the numerous relatives of the generals who have contacted me with additional information on their family members.
