Thank you, Gaspare, for your Reichs Gesetzblatt image of positive and enlightening documentation.
Of course there will be other viewers to this thread who will insist that 3rd-hand stories of items "out of the woodwork from veterans" take precedence over documented fact - so I guess that you cannot "teach an old dog new tricks".
However, I am always willing to learn. Thank you once again for presenting this valued documentation to this thread. It is refreshing!
