Translating Help Needed

Navy · 10-31-2003, 01:56 PM

ALL,

A good friend in Germany sent me a copy of an article from the Deutsches Waffen Journal about the M1911 boarding cutlass. I have let my "Gasthaus" German deteriorate to the point that I am having a great deal of difficulty reading it.

I need some kind soul to translate this bugger for me and save it in MS word for future reference. Its about 5 pages including pictures. I will trade a bottle of your favorite or arrange the demise of your worst enemy/ex-spouse/you pick who in return.

Somehow I have a feeling I'll never collect on the 187 (murder) of anyone, and I do not drink... But if you get a good lead on a luger as described in the newbies section under my addiction post we can call it even! :-)

Here is what I use for translation. It is far from perfect, but it does allow you to get the main undrstanding.

I have used it here and there for many things including letters and simple word translation.

You can point it to a website or put in the words yourself.

Hope this is some help to you.
