KM plaque with interesting date.

A member helped me on another forum identify the shield. I love the date on it. 1 day before Blitzkrieg!

Detlev/Detlef von Lehsten was born in Hamburg 14 August 1917. Joined Kriegsmarine in Crew Oktober 1937. Oberleutnant zS 01.04.42 #190. Last Rank Kapitänleutnant zS on 01.03.45 to date with seniority 18.02.45.

He was a watch officer on U 584 October 1942 to June 1943. Designated commander of the U-996 while it was under construction at Blohm & Voss-- it was badly damaged during the Hamburg Fire Storm air raid of 25 July 1943--possibly the greatest peril he survived during the war.

Spanish cross with Destroyer early model

I am grateful to have joined these two awards which were to the same individual.
I purchased them at different points from different members here. I am happy to preserve this sailors legacy.

I'd like to have just one Schnellboot Hard to find the Schnell- and Räumboote. The Zerstörers are topnotch.

Nice catches, congrats Justin!

Räumboote

Thanks Nactundnebel!


I have only one Räumboote tally. I will get more. I have seen them. I believe that the ones I have seen are a bit pricey. Seeing, from most of the postings, that there are only a few people who are actively collecting muetzenbands, I have time on my side.

Justin
