Ritterkreuz: “Following heavy retreat battles, on the night of the 25./26.07.1944 the Tannenberg Line between Orphanage Hill and the Gulf of Finland was occupied by the Regiment 49 ‘De Ruyter’. The Regiment had the mission of holding this line against all enemy attacks. The enemy commenced an immediate assault with a much greater number of divisions, which were aided by strong tank, artillery and air support. In a sacrificial battle, the Regiment succeeded in defeating all enemy attacks with extremely high losses for the foe. In this major struggle the commander of the Regiment, SS-Obersturmbannführer Collani, fell in battle. In this moment of crisis his adjutant, SS-Hauptsturmführer Ertel, took over leadership of the Regiment. Undeterred by the strong enemy fire from tanks, rocket launchers, artillery and aircraft, he repeatedly went to the hotspots of the fighting. From these points he inspired officers, NCOs and men to offer up their greatest possible resistance via his own exemplary behaviour. Even after being wounded by a shell splinter to the face he remained with the Regiment and maintained a firm grip over its command. His crisis-proof, exemplary attitude was of immeasurable value to the Brigade in the hours of its greatest test on the battlefield. He significantly contributed to the prevention of the intended enemy breakthrough against Reval.”

Exceptional Normandy & Ardennes Battlefield Grouping – Gefreiter Michel, 2. Panzer-Division

An outstanding and rare original Soldbuch grouping belonging to Gefreiter Michel of the elite 2. Kompanie / Panzergrenadier-Regiment 2, 2. Panzer-Division — a frontline soldier who saw fierce combat in both the Battle of Normandy and the Ardennes Offensive.

This historically rich set includes:

• Soldbuch complete with original photograph

• Award document for the Iron Cross 2nd Class (EK2), personally signed by Freiherr von Lüttwitz

• Award document for the Panzer Assault Badge in Bronze, signed by Walter Brassart

• Two additional wound-related documents, including for injuries sustained from a phosphorus grenade during the Ardennes campaign

Michel was promoted to Gefreiter on July 1, 1944, during the Normandy fighting, and awarded the EK2 on July 4, 1944, followed shortly by the Panzer Assault Badge for the same period of engagement. His severe wounding in December 1944 during the brutal Ardennes battles adds further gravity to this exceptional set.

A powerful and complete frontline grouping—ideal for serious collectors of Eastern and Western Front memorabilia, Panzer history, or Normandy-Ardennes campaign material. Rarely do such documented and well-signed sets come to market with this level of authenticity, provenance, and historical depth.

Exceptional 12. SS-Panzer-Division “Hitlerjugend” Soldbuch, Wehrpass & Paper Grouping – Normandy & Battle of the Bulge Veteran

A rare and historically rich grouping belonging to a Funker (radio operator) of the elite 12. SS-Panzer-Division “Hitlerjugend”, who served with the SS-Panzer-Artillerie-Regiment 12 during some of the fiercest fighting of WWII — including the Battle of Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge.

Wounded by a bullet to the lung during the Normandy campaign, he was awarded the Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz and returned to duty in October 1944 with the 3. Batterie / SS-Panzer-Artillerie-Regiment 12 — the Hummel battery, a particularly rare and sought-after unit within the division.

He survived the war and was taken prisoner in May 1945.

A truly complete and compelling set, ideal for any serious collector.

Included in this outstanding grouping:

• Original Soldbuch with clear top photo

• Wehrpass – rarely found together with the Soldbuch from the same soldier

• Supplementary papers, including:

  • Wartime documents

  • A very rare 12. SS-Panzer-Division “Hitlerjugend” postcard

  • Postwar documents related to his captivity

  • A record of two days’ arrest for writing down prohibited place names—an unusual and personal detail of his frontline experience

Direct from the family – first time offered on the market.

This is a standout grouping with direct ties to key WWII campaigns and an elite, sought-after Waffen-SS Division. Don’t miss the chance to acquire an exceptionally rare and well-documented piece of history.

Original Stunning BDM/JM (Jungmädel) Wimpel with beautiful embroided Jungmädel Upstedt and on the back the HJ/BDM Diamond. Size: 75 x 46,5 cm. Complete with hooks! Condition as seen.

This is a superb and historically rich original grouping to SS-Unterscharführer Laspe, who served in 1. Kompanie / SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 37, part of the hard-fighting 17. SS-Panzergrenadier-Division “Götz von Berlichingen.” Laspe saw intense frontline action during the Battle of Normandy, and this grouping reflects his direct combat experience in one of WWII’s most brutal and unforgiving campaigns.

Included in the group are:

• 2 award documents, featuring a rare and highly desirable citation for the Nahkampfspange in Bronze (Close Combat Clasp) — awarded for sustained close-quarters fighting in Normandy. This is a seldom seen document, particularly to a soldier of Götz von Berlichingen, and notably signed by SS-Sturmbannführer Jakob Fick-Briehl, commander of SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 37 at the time — a highly significant and collectible signature.

• A certificate for the Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz (Wound Badge in Black), awarded after Laspe was wounded in July 1944, further attesting to his grueling frontline service in the Normandy campaign.

• 2 original wartime photographs, showing Laspe in uniform — a rare visual documentation of a Waffen-SS enlisted man of this division.

• A selection of wartime papers, adding personal depth and administrative context to his military service.

• 2 extensive wartime diaries, filled with vivid and detailed combat accounts, offering a rare firsthand perspective on daily frontline life, unit movements, engagements, and personal thoughts during the bitter fighting in France. These are genuine frontline soldier’s journals, not postwar reconstructions. In addition, several postwar diaries are included, providing continued reflections and insight into Laspe’s mindset and experience long after the guns fell silent.

This is an exceptionally complete and research-worthy grouping that not only documents Laspe’s role in the Normandy campaign but also provides rare award citations, battle-proven documentation, and deeply personal narrative material that is seldom available on the market.

A must-have for serious collectors of the Waffen-SS, the Normandy campaign, or award document groups, and an ideal centerpiece for any 17. SS or combat-decorated Waffen-SS soldier display.

Rare. Complete. Unquestionably authentic. A grouping with true historical weight.

This group consists of 29 original wartime photographs, including several outstanding portrait shots, most notably a top-quality image of Kleist wearing a camouflage uniform, a highly desirable subject for collectors of Waffen-SS material.

Accompanying the photographs are 4 postwar ID documents, providing valuable personal context to Kleist’s military career and postwar life. These help ground the group historically and enhance its research and display value.
