Default The Leica Freedom Train

I found this article.
JS Online: 'Leica Freedom Train' carried more than cameras
I even more like my Leica M8 than I already did.

Agreed. Nice to know that the history you're carrying is GOOD history.

That's a really nice story.
It's so uplifting to hear of people who use whatever power and influence they have for the benefit of others, and society at large. Maybe I'm just not looking/listening in the right places, but it seems that stories like that are few and far between these days.

Default AW: The Leica Freedom Train

It's indeed a good story. There's lots of additional info available on Andrew Nemeth's site: Leica FAQ - Leica and the Nazis. You'll see that it has been discussed in this forum a couple of times, though unfortunately the links to some of the 2004 threads seem to not be working any more....

Best regerds,
Norbert
