"《帝国档案》里罕见地用上了条顿民族优越性这种陈词滥调,声言“这是德意志民族尚武精神的又一明证”。 said the Reichs Archives — resorting to a rare piece of Teutonic nonsense — afforded ‘renewed proof of the ascendancy of German manliness’."
"直到后来官方的《帝国档案》公布,才首次披露,拉德克在攻占杜奥蒙堡的战斗中,起着仅次于豪普特的重要作用。 Then the official Reichs Archives appeared, establishing for the first time that, second only to Haupt, Radtke had played the most important part in the capture."
"2月27日的德国《帝国档案》记录说:“尽管部队英勇奋战,付出了重大牺牲,但2月27日仍然是凡尔登战役中第一个全线毫无进展的日子。” The 27th of February, the Reichs Archives recorded as being ‘the first day of the Battle for Verdun that, despite the heroic fighting of the troops and despite great and bloody sacrifices, brought German arms no success anywhere.’"
"《帝国档案》关于凡尔登战役的那些卷,总标题恰如其分地写作《凡尔登的悲剧》。 The volumes of the Reichs Archives dealing with the battle are appropriately entitled ‘The Tragedy of Verdun’"
"半官方的四卷《帝国档案》叙述十分客观,偶尔还会对战斗过程进行生动的描写,是德国方面最好的资料。 For objectiveness combined with occasional vivid depiction of the battle, the four semi-official volumes of the Reichs Archives are the best German material."
