I can translate if nesserry og google translate.

I am new in this Forum. Name Christian Franke Andersen 58 years of age. Living in Denmark, with my wive and 2 children. My great interest in the Scotish histery have brourgt os to Your beutiful Contry 5 times on the Motorbike. Wee have bin nearly allover, incl. the Hebrides from Kentyre to Lewis and the Orkneys. I do not have any conection to Sco. other than my love to the people and the land. And a wee dram of the singel is not a problem !! Might by I am a small Wiking who want to come home !!
I am living in the Sothern part of Denmark where we had a lot of trouble with the Germans!! In 1864 wee lost my part of Denmark to the Preuses and Austrian. It came back to Denmark in 1920 but in the meantime the ww1 came over us. By living in this part of the Contry my wives granddad bycame a German soldier, but wery much Danishmindet !! He vent to france and was kild by Riebecourt. We cant find him, but we try.
There ware 35000 Danish/German soldiers send out in the world, and 5500 didnt come home.
My dad, living in the north of Denmark found my mother in 1945, she was running away from the Rusian Amy from Preussen, in Hanburg. He was working as Danish Red Cross staf. He was in the Resistanse, making newspaper and other stuf.
That is not the reasen I am wrighting.
Now to the point and what I want.
As a photograph I see that a lot of pictures could use a bit of polish. Like, many memorial tablet and Headstones are taken from the side or from the top so it is difficult to read the text. I, and other with Photo Shop, could streigthen the picture to make it easyer to read. I cant upload pictures to show, but that coms. I have made some sampels.
Is there some interest or need for my efford.
I could also by some kind of man abrourght for fotos and informations. Wee have a lot of plancrash from ww2 in my part of the Contry. The Isle of Als, neat the border to Germany.
Show my to put pictures in the forun, and I show You what I mean.
Thanks for listening.
Any one send me a email adr. and I can send some sampels. Mine is : kedde57@gmail.com

Gretings Franke.
