Hi Gents,
I had posted this in the pic section, but a few members have asked if I could post this in this forum for the benefit of those who may not migrate to other areas of the site..
I picked this Soldbuch cover/pic in Europe about 20 years ago from a flea market, out of a box of old paper ephemera.It was one of about a dozen I picked out, all that was left of various Heer, Luftwaffe and SS identity books.
I have often wondered if I could put a name to the face here, but I can't quite make it out..
A question I have: knowing that by February 1941 the appellation Totenkopf had been removed from all units except for those in the TK-division, could this cover have been part of a pre-February 1941 Soldbuch that had a picture before they were mandated?
If anyone has the rest of this book, it would be neat to put together some information on this fellow as he was no doubt a witness to some of the most horrific history of the 20th century. If anyone has any information to add, that would be great!
