LUGers,
Talk about irony. Yesterday I received the general info brochure on the
M6 from Leica NJ. Among some very nice photographs reproduced in this
lavish promo piece is the memorable Leica photo of Soviet soldiers
hoisting the hammer and sickle flag of the USSR over bombed out Berlin.
German camera used to take this sad photo. BTW, I lived about 15 miles
from there at the time.

Cordially
