      Hello Sepp ! I don't know what those are, but he did not have any TDB's to his credit. I met him a few times and if he had any he would have been included in my book for sure ! Tom

              None to merit the Tank destruction badge for single handed destruction. Of course in his tank he knocked out bunches.

                    Do you know that his panzer wrap still exists and is in a private collection in the US. It will be shown in the new series of books on wraps that is coming out.

                      No I did not know this. I wonder what happened to his other surviving stuff ???? He gave me a signed photo wearing a black wrapper. Tom

                        That is the same wrapper in the photo that still exists. Apparently at the end of the war von Beschwitz was in the hospital or something like that and a US officer took a liking to his wrap and took it.

                        His medals and award documents are in some collection in Europe. It would be nice if the two could be re-united, or at least copies of the award documents obtained for the owner of the wrap.

                          thank you Tom for you reply , the reason I ask is because he is not on the panzer ace list...At least the one in Wikipedia..

                            I don't know what qualifies one for the "panzer ace" list, but I believe he was awarded the number 25 Tank battle badge. But I know he was never awarded any Tank Destruction Badges. Tom

                              Actually, he was awarded the 50 tank assault badge.
