Hi Martin,<O</O
These ones are for you, as I think you have more than a passing interest in Wilhelm Mylius (owning his Honour Goblet for starters)<O</O
I picked these photos up during the summer from a forum member, he said that they came from Mylius estate ( who Knows, but they are original period photos)<O</O

Wilhelm Mylius of KG55

According to the son of Mylius, the estate was given by Mylius wife to a KG55 Kameradschaft / Community to honor Mylius. But I strongly believe it came in the wrong hands and the estate was split and sold in parts....

Here's my 1938 Xmas Bier Krug from the unit named to Haupfeldwebel Ulrich

[jim murray]

Thank you Nick for posting your super Bier Krug, it's nice to see items from KG55 previous designation. I'll try and find some info. on Hptfw. Ulrich for you, if I can. I did find a Rudolf Ulrich who was a mamber of the KG55 veterins assocation.

I have a number of photo albums to members of KG55. But this one is the best of them in my opinion. So I’ve decided to post nearly all the pages, so you can judge for yourselves. Unfortunately I don’t know the name of the owner, but he was a member of 6<SUP>th</SUP> Staffel KG55. The album covers the period just before the invasion of Poland up to early 1940. I think he was a bordfunker and the album depicts a lot photos of one particular aircrew. He may have been killed in action or badly wounded as the album ends suddenly. The inside cover has a signed photo General Heinz Guderian, and the first two pages shows aircrew visiting a naval base and shows a u-boat and the pocket battleship "Scharnhorst" <O</O
