Gold Wound Badge document: good?

[DaveNZ]

I have this GWB document in my collection. I think it is OK but would like to know what the experts feel

cheers

Hmm, tough call for me...the odd folding could be a red flag, as normally docs will be halved or quartered.

Other than that, I like it. Somebody acquainted with Luftwaffe units could probably tell you if the unit/stamp match and make sense.

Off the face of it i can see nothing wrong. The unit and where it was located is correct, the length of time between being wounded until being reassigned to a desk job is OK. Hapel though was not a regular officer, nor held any high decoration. Worthy of further research.

Thanks Simon

Not really sure where to start when doing research on this so any tips appreciated

cheers

Hi Dave

The quickest thing to do would be to ask about this Major Hapel over on the Axis History Forum. Larry de Zeng would be the guy to ask here but he's stopped posting.

Justin: yes i think there might be a more recent fold in it

Simon: thanks for the tip

have a great Christmas guys
