Wow. Very haunting. Thank you for sharing this very interesting and personal history of one soldier.
If you compare his first and last picture, it almost seems as if he has aged a lot due to his experiences.
Regards and nice items.

That sounds like a very nice WP Rob.Originally posted by Rob Johnson View PostI'm really loking forward to seeing some pictures of your '653' Kursk veteran's grouping, Steve! I recently picked up a Wehrpass to a Officer and Ferdinand commander in 4./s.Pz.-Jäg.Abt.653, was awarded the PAB25 and went on to become chief of the maintenance company after the Abteilung was outfitted with Jagdtigers
Gotta' love those 653 IDs
