Group of RKT Bodo Spranz

[mdj]

Some of you may have seen these before, but I would like to show you parts of the RKT grouping of Prof. Dr. Bodo Spranz, who sadly died on 1 september 2007. I believe the grouping is still in the family's possession.

Perhaps you would like to put this here: Individual Soldier's History Archive Forum and give us some more background on the man himself.

Very nice group of a "Kämpfer"

Great group.

The best thing here is the chance to see the reverse of a REAL, attributable, numbered General Assault Badge.

[DavidB]

Yeah the numbered GAB looks super nice!
Any idea what number it is, 25 or 50?

Hi David,

it's the 25.

Please notice, the photo's in this thread are from the Militaria-fundforum. The person who placed the photo's visited the Oaks holder and he shared the conversation on that forum. Very interesting to read.

Best,

Jeroen

Yes, most pieces looks nice. What do you think of the KC and oaks?

Its a superb set from, what I have heard, a very nice and friendly person...To bad I have never met him. There must be a few on this forum who have, i suppose...
