Hi All,
I have a nice grouping to a Medic, including Soldbuch, Red Cross Ausweis x3, Feldpost, POW paperwork, etc. The interesting part is that he appears to have been with a “Regiment von Stössel” and was captured in November 1944. See previous post regarding the identification of the unit (thanks Bernhard):

Can anyone shed additional light on this regiment and it’s participation in the fighting around fortress Metz. Would this regiment make the grouping rarer? Does his POW date make it likely he was captured at Metz? I have attached a couple of scans below. If additional information is needed, please advise.
Many Thanks,
Pete
