    WP Panzer Ace

    I wanted to share a few impressions of Hans Strippel`s WP (KC and Oak Leaves with Panzer-Regiment 1).

    WP are not really my field of collecting but I like this one because of 1) all his combat days are entered and 2) by coincidence I have the Album of a soldier who served with him so there are images of Strippel in the album.

    First some impressions of the WP



    Awards



    Some of the combat days



    Some photos from the Album

    Strippel before the KC



    Strippel on his KC award day. At the time the unit was stationed in France in Vers-sur-Selle.



    Somewhere in Russia

          OLs to the KC, but I think that the Panzerkampfabzeichen "75" is even better!!!

            That is one nice Wehrpass.
            Sure worth doing some research on it.

              AMAZING!

              Thank you for sharing. Did not know that the Wehrpass is still existing.

              Where the heck do you get this great stuff?

                  Thanks for the positive comments and glad you all enjoy it.
                  Below a few more photos.

                  This is Ofw. Shäfer who, like Ofw. Strippel, was also a Zugführer in 2./PzRgt 1. He was awarded the RKT about one year before Strippel.
