Tieke, Landwerh, etc.

Preserving here by providing this link. The edit removed Richard Landwehr (link speak for itself) and Tieke, whose Tragedy of the Faithful was published by the "notoriously pro-Wehrmacht", in the words of one historian, J.J. Fedorowicz Publishing. There was one citation to Cairius which is also non RS in this context. Some were not citations at all, such as ^[1].

Where is Mereküla?

@Jaan: I am curious about the statement about "the coastal settlement of Mereküla". Google maps puts this very far away on the Gulf of Riga, which is definitely not the right location. I can't find anything like this name anywhere on the coast near Narva. Is this the correct name? Perhaps the name has changed? Maury Markowitz (talk) 22:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhh, Merikula is in the Narva area. Is the spelling in the article correct? Maury Markowitz (talk) 22:44, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"For there first in Narva the Estonian Division had the Waffen-Grenadier Regiment der SS 45 and the Waffen-Grenadier Regiment der SS 46 separate the Riigiküla bridgehead from the Siivertsi bridgehead on 21 February" - this statement is unintelligible and needs to be reworded.
