Hi
PzV - Excellent photograph and many thanks for posting it
moda.new - I think if you place an advert on the wanted section, then you should be able to pick one up for £25-£35 perhaps. I am not up to date with the prices on these.

Hi Andy
Excellent image and interesting that she is sporting 'CND' anti-nuclear buttons, many years before the pressure group was actually formed

Mothers cross
My OMI (Grandma)
Heldigart Stuhlert died a year ago at 94 years old .
She recieved the Mothers cross in Bronze personally from Joseph Gobbles
in Berlin along with a bran new Baby Carriage in April of 1941.
I will ask my aunts in Germany if they have any pictures of her wearing it.
She was in Berlin during the last big Battle in March through May of 1945 and was also 8 months pregnent at the time .
My Mother remembers a dirty Russian soldier whipping my OMI with a horse whip and demanding her to submit to him or he would kill the children that where with her at that time ( my mother Monika 5 yrs and my aunt Charlotte 10 yrs ) my other 2 aunts were BDM red cross war helpers and my uncle Wolfgang was fighting in an HJ volkstrum unit ( killed during the battle).
The Russian raped her right in front of her 2 young children . My Mother remembers a Russian officer pulling the rapest off my Grandma and yelling at him then took out a pistol and shot the Russian rapest in the head killing him .
The Russian Officer then apoligized in German and gave my Mother some water from the dead russian canteen to clean her self off with and said he was nothing but a dirty pig . This all happened in front of my mother then 5 years old .
This true story gives both Bad and good accounts of the Russians in Berlin during the last days of the War .
