Re: brushes with Infamy

apart from meeting Idi Amin in the Sudan (1980) during his exodus from Uganda into exile in Saudi Arabia don't think I have met anyone who could really be described as infamous (nasty) . Have buddy in Austria and he keeps a photo of this Dad on the mantlepiece in his Waffen SS uniform from the early 40s , only met the chap once (now passed on) , when asked about his missing fingers , he just replied with a shrug 'Stalingrad' , a really nice gentleman , made great Obstler (Schnapps) . Also once worked/alongside with a chap who had been part of the German occupation force in the Channel islands , he was a nice chap as well ....
