A must-have book

I would just like to recommend a really excellent book, which I consider a 'must' for anyone interested in the Imperial German armed forces as well as all aspects of Imperial Germany as such. Joe & Janet Robinson's "Handbook of Imperial Germany" is a superb peice of work, and as I say I'd recommend it very highly. Full of information on just about anything you can think of.

File Extension Library - What is a File Extension?

The Special Forces Regiment (Airborne) is an elite Philippine Army unit established in the 1960s by Fidel V. Ramos (first Commanding officer of the Special Forces), primarily trained in both unconventional and psychological warfare.
Like the Scout Rangers, the Special Forces Regiment of the Philippine Army is also highly trained in the art of counter-insurgency operations. Each member of the SF Regiment may opt to undergo speciality courses as well after finishing the basic special forces basic course. This includes undergoing training in demolitions and bomb disposal (EOD), psychological warfare operations (PSYOPS), K-9 handling, prisoner and law enforcement management, riverine operations, combat diving, as well as VIP security training in preparation for a re-assignment with the Presidential Security Group.

Need help! Page transaltion help needed………..

Could I respectfully impose on someone to translate a page from "Waleczne Skorpiony: Pulku 4 Pancernego tom II". It's a chart listing their wheeled support & transport. I usually use Google translate but it's all coming back in disconnected sentences. I understand the vehicle types it's just everything else from the title, columns the paragraph at the bottom that's not translating very well.

Thanks in advance
