When do you head in ..got a second hand book dealer in Richmond that will have a few copies..happy to purchase and send down
Had about 17 of them (I thought I had them all but not sure) but gave them to a second hand book dealer about 15 years ago, from memory and as mentioned above Legion of the Dammed summed up his exploits, there was one other that was similar, I do recall the "SS General" as being brutal, a good read.
I always enjoyed this one...

Funny as..
Yeap I was also a teenager digesting them all.... wheels of terror i think was the first, I will have a look in the attic.
My bad it was indeed Legion of the Dammed as his first novel.
Found this site too

My trip fell through thanks to a couple of the group coming down with Covid 4-5 days out from flying in. Still managed to get a couple of Hassel's books though. Cheers.
there were a fairly high count of discarded panties too in some of the westerns of that time...Quote:

if you like those books you should track down a copy of Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer.
This is one of the best books I have read.
A German officer escapes captivity and due to his fluency in the Russian language is drafted into the Russian Army.
True story too.

Havn't seen a copy for years and years, but if you see one - get it. Great story and well told
If you aren't having any luck in the second hand shops, you can find these books on amazon if you have a kindle or similar.
