Having been delayed due to some unavoidable publisher problems, my German Cross in Gold series on the SS and Police is now on track with Bender Publishing. He assured me vol. 4 will be out by end of year and I’ve already proofread Bender’s completed 370 pages of design with all photos. Covering SS Cavalry, its contents are as follows. The book has a vast amount of new data on these units and personnel, as well as correcting many mistakes that have been excepted over the years.
