Letter to HJ member
I have a letter from a leading SS personality to (I assume) a HJ boy replying to his request for a photo. Gerdan very kindly translated this from sutterlin (or should that be deciphered?) and i have tried to translate from German to English. I have reached a bit of a block and would greatly appreciate any help in finishing the missing bits and correcting my poor grasp of German.
thanks!
Tom
Mein lieber Kamerad,

Ihre Jungens in der Heimatmogen dabelimmer bedenken dass dieseAuszeichnungdurch den harten Kampf vieler unserer tapferen Manner erkampt wurde und einer es fur alle seine Kameraden tragen kann.
This badge has been earned through the hard struggle of our brave men.
Sie alle tragen es unsichtbar. Und wieder treten wir an, dem Tod unsere Besten zu reichen (?)
They all wear it invisibly. And again we come to the death against him our best men to surrender
Mit unserer Fahne ist der Sieg!
Our flag is the victory

I'll gladly fulfill your wish, and send a picture. I hope that completes your collection.

(Some of the German above isn't quite right...but here goes) The youth at home must always remember that these awards have been earned in the difficult battles by brave men. One wears it for all his men. (as in, maybe 1 guy earns or wins a medal, but it was a group effort)

You all wear the medal(s) unseen (in spirit, so to speak). And we march again, despite the fear (or prospect) of death, to achieve our best.
Mit unserer Fahne ist der Sieg!
Our flag is the victory
