Olham 164 Posted July 17, 2011 Just found this interesting website or blog with the war diary of a Dieter Finzen, which was now, 93 years later, released there. It looks authentic to me, but I'm easily led. What do you historians think? http://dieter-finzen.blogspot.com/search/label/Aufkl%C3%A4rungsabteilung%20-%20MI%20Section Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 17, 2011 . Olham, I am relatively certain that is someone's online character blog and not an actual WWI diary. Pretty well done though. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 17, 2011 . No wait, I am in error. They are transcripts from an actual soldier's diary entered in a day-by-day fashion on that blog. Very interesting. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 17, 2011 . Dieter's blog appears to be a German complement to this Englishman's diary: War Diary of Harry Lamin . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted July 17, 2011 The question now is: are those old diaries, layed over our today's calendar, or are they ficticuous? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 17, 2011 . They are actual WWI diaries entered into the blogs on the same days as when they were first written. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
