    Help asked with SS death notice.

    Hello all,

    This is the death notice of SS-Untersturmführer (Leutnant) Rupert Mittermaier, died on 10-11-1944 somewhere in Italy.
    On the picture he still seems a Hauptscharführer to me, but on the card he is called a Leutnant, so I guess he made it to Untersturmführer.
    Rupert was holder of the EK1 + EK2, I suggest the East campaign medal, at least the Wound Badge in black, and...?

    Anyone with a Dienstalterliste who can tell me which decorations Rupert had earned before he left the circus?
    All help is appreciated very much!

      Martin,

      Many soldiers were promoted postumously which are reflected on Death Cards. So there is a chance you may not find what you are looking for. All the best in your search.

      Cheers

        Hi Scott,

        I know it is a small chance.
        But I am very curious what is beneath the EK1 on his chest.
        It does not look like a 'normal' GAB or something like that to me.

        So I hope someone with a Dienstalterliste, or with better eyes then me has some information for me.

        Thanks for your comments!

        Best regards,
        Martin

            Hi Rygaard,

            Thanks for your suggestion!

            It also passed my mind, but wasn't it against regulations to wear two of those?
            I thought you were allowed to wear just the highest grade awarded?

            Best regards,
            Martin
