      Remigius Hellenthal on Youtube

      I wanted to re-spark this thread on Reichsbahner Remigius Hellenthal.

      There is footage of the presentation of his Knights Cross of the War Merit Cross with Swords on Youtube. The link is as follows:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb4rgnH4QSw&NR=1

      If the link doesn't work, simply look up Youtube and enter:

      Die Deutsche Wochenschau Nr. 693, Dez-1943, 1/2

      It begins by talking about the Reichsbahn in the East and has Herr Hellenthal's award presentation starting at minute 2:35. He is "first up"

      Nice footage of the Reichsbahn personnel!

        Somehow I missed this thread on the first go-around, especially since I am a Reichsbahn buff. Congrats on the most historically-significant DRB find of the decade--I, like everyone else, hope you do find the KVK, and await additional pictures.

        Thanks for sharing--
