The term frontsoldaten literally translates as "front-line soldiers". German (deutsche) soldiers (soldaten) that were (or had) engaged in front-line combat proudly called themselves frontsoldaten.

This may appear to be an advertisement - it is not! While it is not a requirement (nor do I remember it even being a suggestion) I personally want to thank Neocities and encourage everyone to support Neocities in any way possible. I spent countless hours - days - months trying to find a web hosting service that would allow for HTML use. Instead I ran into more and more forced pregenerated page "templates" and "styles" (that could not be deviated from), "drag and drop" confusion, and the (now) ubiqutous AI. I yearned for the time when I could do what I wanted to do utilizing only HTML coding. Just as I was about to give up I came across Neocities. What I found was a nostalgic-retro time-jump back to the 1990s and the heyday of individual website design. Neocities is as simple as it can get - the way it used to be! If you come across this (and want to create a website using only HTML coding) then Neocities is where you need to be! No banners, no advertisements, no fees (but PLEASE try and support Neocities), no gimmicks, and no AI! Feel free to email me and I will gladly give you a run down of every other web hosting service I tried and how Neocities is the ONLY way to go for HTML web hosting! Unterstützung!
