Hi Guys!
Here's only my 2nd grouping I've ever obtain. Phillippe was kind enough to part with it! Hans's picture and PAB cut-out are located in Philippe's PAB books, Volume 2, pages 806-7.

Han's Skala was in the DAK 1941-43. During Afrika he was with the 8th Company, Panzer Regiment 5. Which was involved in most battles in Afrika. Afterwards he was with 11th Company, Panzer Regiment 2.

I have it displayed in another one of Dave's display cases he made for me!

If anyone knows of or where I can find any other of his docs or whatever, please, please let me know.

Hope you like it as much as I do!
Thanks!
Greg

REALLY nice grouping. The cut-out badge is sweet, but the whole group together is just such a great piece of history!

Very nice group! Could we see a closer shot of the portrait photo? Is it dated on the back by chance?

Nothing on the back of Han's photo, but all +-60 pics in the album are written on, wish I remember my German (spoke it before English!).
Thanks!!

Greg, very nice indeed. Just stumbled upon this thread by accident. So happy this nice set is together, and in a good home.

Are these the S&L EK1 and the P&C EK2 you showed recently?

Thank you also for posting it! This forum needs people who post their stuff .

Hi Guys!
For the first time for one of my grouping I asked Carlos to create a Hans Skala figure to go with the group, complete with his exact awards that are in the group. Never did it before, but I really like the work Carlos created.
Hope you like it as well!
