Good Morning! And you can see it is a GREAT morning!
First, let me say, Christoph it sure seems like a long time ago when you found Stephenson. You then went and researched how I could get in touch with Stolz, the author of this story, directly! I never dreamed such a thing would be possible! I could never have found him!
What you did was incredible and then Stolz led us to the Siegburg information. He also led me to an interpreter when I visited the Nun, during the period when you were vacationing on one of those great European beaches.
What was sad was that he told me that after he sent me the information he would be out of communication. He was going somewhere and it appeared to be for health reasons. I have written him a couple of notes, it has been some time now, to thank him. Because he has to have everything translated I did not want to burden him - and he may not have a computer where he was going - it sounded like he needed complete rest.
It would be wonderful to share with him Larry's great summary on each of the men. Maybe you will have some idea on that.
I tried researching in St. Louis the men with Stephenson to see if they had gotten to Siegburg. The amount of research I did, I recall proved no connection - or led me no where - I must go back to those files to be certain though.
The incredible POW list for Siegburg that you found and sent me - made my research in St. Louis much more effective!!!
We have come a long way - in a short period of time - Thanks to You, Larry, Marion, Walter Brinegar and his daughter, Mary
