My uncle and his SS career

[Ostmaerker]

Thank you all for your kind words. The good things is that I have these things, the bad thing is, that my uncle burried all the rest in the late 70s to get rid of all these things, he suffered all his life because of his SS past....

@ heergezzer: I think he used his normal SS hangers, take a good look there and you could see what I mean...

@ Annelie: I´m not 100% sure, but I think he was caught by the americans, but didn´t spend that much time beeing a POW. Maybe I can find that out, never thought of this.

Annelie, I wrote to the wast years ago, and I know everything, about 40 copies full of information, but not the info if he was a Pow...

Ostmaerker

[Annelie]

Wow, you got a lot of information in 40 pages.

You can also inquire at


Deutsches Rotes Kreuz
Suchdienst München
Chiemgaustrasse 109
D-81549 München (Munich)
Deutschland

On the web:

http://www.rotkreuz.de/


they will or should have info and maybe even his POW data and give you that camp name and personal ID.

if your interested of course :-)

Great Grouping.. Do you know what happened to his Dagger & Uniforms, or is those some of the items he buried?
