Hello everyone, I want to show you guys my new purchase. For me this Wehrpass is a special one for various reasons. First of all I collect Dutch May 1940, second my grandfather was a Dutch soldier how fought against the 1. Kavallerie- Division during May 1940, and last but not least, the 24 Panzer-Division and in particulary the 24 Panzer- regiment are really intresting.
There is written a lot about the 1KD and 24PD, so I know already a lot, despite the many books I have a question. Erwin Vogel died in the North of Stalingrad during an aerial bombing (29.09.1942). I could unfortunally not traced the bombing in books or publications also Erwin is nowhere mentoined. Do you guys know more?
The last question is about his participation within the regiment. I know the 24Pz-rgt used Pz IV, the sign of his kommandant and the training in Kwk 40 could be a sign for me that he was a crewmember in a Pz IV, what do you guys think?
Thanks for helping and enjoy the Wehrpass!
