Stug wrapper
Thanks for posting, Bob.
These are photos from the album of the vet who lives in Melbourne, Australia.
The NCO shot shows him as an officer candidate when commanding a StugIII on the Eastern front. He was promoted to leutnant November 1944 and transferred to Art Regt 860. The portraits were taken in his home town, Grossborn.
He was interned by the Soviets in 1945 and not released until 1948.
Naturally, I asked about the wrapper.........he said he wore it throughout his captivity and it was finally burned as it was a stinking mess. He kept his EK1 by concealing it in a ball of darning wool.
Regards,
Mike
