Nehring joined the military service on 16 September 1911 in the Infanterie-Regiment 152. He became a commissioned Leutnant on 18 December 1913. On 26 October 1940 he received command of the 18th Panzer Division at Chemnitz, which he commanded during the operations Barbarossa and Typhoon. The division led by Nehring, is accused by numerous current accounts, of war crimes.
Nehring took command of the Afrika Korps in May 1942 and took part in the last major Axis offensive (Operation Brandung) of the Western Desert campaign and the subsequent Battle of Alam Halfa (31 August – 7 September 1942), during which he was wounded in an air raid. Between November and December 1942, he commanded the LXXXX Army Corps, the German contingent in Tunisia.
After North Africa, Nehring was posted to the Eastern Front where he commanded first the XXIV. Panzer Corps, and then from July to August 1944 the Fourth Panzer Army. Nehring then returned to the XXIV in August 1944 and led the Corps until March 1945 when he was made commander of the 1st Panzer Army. During 1944 he was also the commanding officer of the XXXXVIII Panzer Corps. Following the end of the war, Nehring wrote a comprehensive history of the German panzer forces from 1916 to 1945, Die Geschichte der deutschen Panzerwaffe 1916 bis 1945. He also wrote the foreword to Len Deighton’s Blitzkrieg: From the Rise of Hitler to the Fall of Dunkirk.

Flemish Construction WH Visor Cap (Walloon Legion/Flemish Guard)
€1.450,00A scarce and historically interesting example of a Wehrmacht Infanterie (Heer) visor cap of Flemish manufacture, produced in occupied Belgium. The cap features the distinctive white piping (Waffenfarbe) specific to the Infanterie branch, along with matching period insignia, consistent in style and materials with occupation-made headgear.
Based on construction characteristics and regional tailoring style, this visor cap is most likely associated with use by the Walloon Legion, and later—following organizational changes from July 1944—by the Vlaamse Wacht (Flemish Guard). The workmanship clearly differs from standard German factory production and reflects classic Flemish wartime construction using locally sourced materials.
Overall, the cap presents very well, showing honest age and use while retaining strong visual appeal. Size is unmarked, but it is a larger example and fits standard mannequin heads comfortably. Condition is generally good; the only noted issue is that the sweatband is partially loose along approximately one quarter of its circumference. The remainder of the cap is structurally sound and displays nicely.
A desirable and rarely encountered example of foreign-made Wehrmacht Infanterie headgear, combining Flemish occupation-period manufacture with documented links to collaborationist formations in the later stages of the war. An excellent addition to any advanced collection focusing on occupation-made uniforms, Flemish or Walloon units, or late-war Heer material.
Condition as shown.

SS-Panzer-Division “Wiking”.
Knight’s Cross: “On the 08.01.1943 SS-Hauptsturmführer Eichhorn first defended Orlowskaja against a regimental-sized attack on his own initiative with 2 weak Kompanien. Then, in a counterthrust of his own, he smashed the enemy’s 550th Regiment. Through this Eichhorn has exhibited an example of the highest devotion to duty, and through his independent actions he once again brought the important road/railway junction firmly under friendly control. Over 700 enemy dead were counted. 5 artillery pieces, 3 heavy anti-tank guns, 1 heavy AA gun, 8 anti-tank rifles, 22 MGs, numerous small arms and 30 horse-drawn wagons were also captured.”
