3x Award Document Grouping – EK2 + ISA + Wound Badge – Infanterie-Regiment 464 / 253. Infanterie-Division (Interesting ISA Award Doc!)

Original named Wehrmacht award document grouping to Hans Stambor, documenting frontline service with 2. Kompanie / Infanterie-Regiment 464, part of the 253. Infanterie-Division on the Eastern Front.

The grouping consists of three original award documents:

• Infantry Assault Badge (Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen) awarded on 13 September 1941 to Gefreiter Hans Stambor, serving with 2./Infanterie-Regiment 464.
• Iron Cross 2nd Class (Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse / EK2) awarded on 26 September 1941 to Gefreiter Hans Stambor, also with 2./I.R. 464.
• Wound Badge in Black (Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz) awarded on 29 May 1942 to Obergefreiter Hans Stambor, for wounds received on 24 May 1942.

A highly attractive and complete combat progression grouping showing the typical award path of a frontline infantryman: first earning the Infantry Assault Badge for repeated combat assaults, followed shortly after by the EK2 for bravery or distinguished combat performance, and later receiving the Wound Badge in Black after being wounded in action.

The 253. Infanterie-Division saw extensive combat on the Eastern Front, particularly in the central sector during Operation Barbarossa and subsequent heavy fighting in the Soviet Union.

Overall in good original condition with expected folding, age toning, and minor handling wear.
