Anyone know if there is an English translation of this book about the List Regiment (16th RIR) Hitler's Regiment in the war.

Thanks.

Unfortunately none that I have ever seen.

No translation, but the original is very well written and an easy read: Vier Jahre Westfront. Die Geschichte des Regiments List R.I.R. 16 Dr Fridolin Solleder Munich 1932. They seem to be like hens' teeth. I have been trying to buy one for years and only have a few copied extracts, unfortunately.

Hi Jack

I have the copy as a PDF. Bought it from a German who scanned it. Doesn't help me as i don't speak much German, certainly not enough to wade through.

But thanks for the reply

One would think that if there was a regimental history from WWI that would have been translated, it would be this one. I'm not sure that any German unit histories have been translated, and I know of only one from the pre-war Imperial German Army.

Someone else has digitized it, or uploaded the file mentioned in post #4. The link for the entire file is at the bottom, otherwise it can be downloaded in sections.
