[W Petz]

Here is a recent pickup.....Heer Soldat wearing the Paratrooper Badge and what looks to be a Krim shield......Could he be a Brandenberger??? any opinions?? Bill

[Eric Queen]

Bill, could this be the same guy?

[W Petz]

Eric,

It sure looks like the same NCO and his wife!! What the story on him. Bill

[Eric Queen]

Bill, last name is BEGANDER, was a luft para first then transfered into an army grunt unit. Unfortunately, not a Brandenburger.

Eric,

Thanks for the information...strange that he transferred to Army Infantry. I guess he realized life expectancy wasn't all that great in the Fallschirmjaeger. Bill

Damn Eric, you are good. Ten minutes and the guy is identified!

Eric, isn't this the guy I just bought three pics of from you? Looks like there was a large group at one time that has been broken up.
