Gutentag Kameraden!

Post by mark bogers »

Dear members,
I want to introduce myself. I'm Mark Bogers (spell it like Rogers but then with a B) 17 years old and I live in Hoogerheide, Holland.

The Second World War is something that really interests me, especially the German Air force (Luftwaffe).

The Germans build an airfield in my hometown and called it Einsatzhafen Woensdrecht. Messerschmitts and Focke Wolfs were stationed here. There are also a lot of bunkers in this region, most Flak bunkers manned by the 3./Lei. Flak-Abt. 668 with around 30x Flak 2 cm, 9x Flak 3,7 cm and 4x Flak 8,8cm and some light searchers. On the age of 15 my interest in the Second World War started. The bunkers and the Flak gun are my favorite objects so I started with collecting a Flak Luftwaffe Soldier uniform (see below)

I hope to find a lot of information about whole the Luftwaffe!

With kind regards,

Mark Bogers (Re-enacting name: Karl Fliege)
