hey all for my wirb dio i am going to have a german sigh saying "beware of landmines or "landmines" or even just a skull and corres bones symbol. does anyone know what these words are in german.

thnx

matt

The words usually associated with German minefields are 'Achtung - Minen', but I'm not a language scholar and they may not be grammatically correct.

Normally the signs said "Achtung Minen" or small yellow triangular flags with a skull on.

Kris

yeah... Achtung Minen is the one
easily recognisable... so your veiwers wont need a german dictionary.

feld means field, i dont really know german, but i would guess minenfeld=minefield?

Achtung Minen !
Don't care about the shield, during late-war-period there was no standardisation.
Maybe you do a wooden shield and some colored flags ?

Frank

sorry for double-posting ...

"Minen !" or "Vorsicht Minen" will also do

CU
