    EF Horster Luft Sword w/unit markings

    Hello everybody,
    Just wanted to share this Luft officer sword by EF Horster that I picked up today. The bottom side of one of the crossguard wings is stamped Schl.117 which I believe is for Schulgeschwader school. The throat fitting on the scabbard is also identtically stamped.

    Questions, comments, statements welcome.

                    Nice sword!

                    What does the obverse look like?


                    Cheers,
                    David.
                    At Rathau on the Aller, the CO of 5th Royal Tanks advanced on foot to take a cautious look into the town before his tanks moved in. He encountered one of his own officers, a huge Welshman named John Gwilliam who later captained his country's rugby team, 'carrying a small German soldier by the scruff of his neck, not unlike a cat with a mouse.' The Colonel said: 'Why not shoot him?' Gwilliam replied in his mighty Welsh voice: 'Oh no, sir. Much too small.'
