    Wehrpass, Panzer Abteilung "Feldherrnhalle"

    Here's a really nice Wehrpass belonging to Unteroffizier Herbert Sahmel, who served with Panzer-Abteilung "Feldherrnhalle" from 18 June to 25 December 1943 (note that a clerk in his unit errantly wrote 25 February 1943). Sahmel qualified with a rifle, P-08 and P-38 pistols, MG 34 and 7,5 cm KWK cannon. He was qualified as a Richtschuetze (Gunner) and Kommandant (Commander) of a Sturmgeschuetz (Assault Gun). After serving with Panzer Grenadier Regiment 120 (mot), which was part of Division "Feldherrnhalle" -

    he was assigned to the 2./Panzer-Abteilung "Feldherrnhalle," which operated Sturmgeschuetz IIIs having 7,5 cm cannons. He served with this unit until he was struck in the left eye by a shell fragment on 25 December 1943. His eye wound prevented him from serving at the front again; however, from 26 February 1944 to 15 December 1944, he was assigned to the Genesenden Kompanie (Recuperation Company) of Panzer-Truppen-Ersatz und Ausbildungs-Abteilung "Feldherrnhalle" and the Marsch-Kompanie of Panzer-Truppen-Ersatz und Ausbildungs-Abteilung "Feldherrnhalle". Sahmel's fate is unknown.
