Awarded for distinguishing himself as a Flak gunner throughout the North African campaign. During the battles of Sidi Rezeg and Bir el Hacheim (1941) he destroyed 16 enemy tanks. During the advances in the time period May-June 1942 (Tobruk—Marsa Matruk—El Alamein) he destroyed another 19 enemy tanks. He also destroyed about 200 vehicles as well as anti-tank gun batteries and MG nests. During the combat along the El Alamein front he prevented an armoured breakthrough, destroying 7 tanks at a range of 30-50 metres and shielding about 1000 prisoners from the Allies long enough for them to be taken away by German troops. He had destroyed 42 tanks altogether by the time he received the Knight’s Cross.

Wehrmacht Heer Artillerie Officer Visor Cap
€0,01An attractive and original Wehrmacht (Heer) Artillerie Officer’s Schirmmütze, with the distinctive bright red (hochrot) Waffenfarbe denoting service with the Artillery branch. The cap displays the elegant appearance expected of privately purchased officer-quality headgear and retains excellent display appeal.
The cap features a high-quality feldgrau wool body with a dark bottle-green center band, beautifully highlighted by vivid red piping around both the crown and band. It retains its original aluminum Heer officer cap eagle, finely hand-embroidered silver bullion oak leaf wreath with metal officer cockade, silver officer chin cords, and black vulcanfiber visor. The buttons are sewn on with black thread (also used to sew on the sweat band in the middle at the back and the oak leaf wreath, this all looks period done so the extra thread might not have been cut back in the day).
The overall shape remains very attractive, with the typical saddle-form crown giving the cap excellent display characteristics. All insignia appear period-applied and match the cap well. The interior retains its original brown leather sweatband and silk lining.
Overall condition is very good, exhibiting only light age-related wear, with no significant moth damage observed to the exterior cloth. The colors remain strong, with particularly vibrant artillery piping that contrasts beautifully against the feldgrau body.
A highly desirable original Wehrmacht Heer officer’s visor cap from the Artillery branch, offering excellent display quality and representing one of the most recognizable pieces of German officer headgear from the Second World War.
Condition: Very good original condition with honest period wear. Interior shows use and age-related staining, with partial separation of the sweatband stitching. Please study the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.

The visor remains in excellent condition, making this a very appealing example for display or a serious Heer collection.
The interior is named and unit identified, with the marking “8. (MG) Kompanie/ Infanterie-Regiment 109”. This is an excellent original unit association. Infanterie-Regiment 109 was formed in 1936 and served as part of the 35. Infanterie-Division. Its 1939 organization included the II. Bataillon with the 5th–8th Companies, with the 8. MG-Kompanie specifically belonging to this battalion.
The regiment fought on the Western Front in 1939–40 before seeing extensive service on the Eastern Front. It was redesignated Grenadier-Regiment 109 in October 1942.

WH Heer Infanterie M40 Feldbluse – NCO – Combat Worn – Perfect “Kampfschwein” Tunic!
€1.250,00Original WWII German Heer M40-pattern Feldbluse, manufactured and issued for an NCO. A genuinely well-used combat tunic showing honest period wear throughout.
The Feldbluse has original insignia, including the machine-applied Heer breast eagle (this could have been changed or upgraded by the soldier once, as the eagle is an early one on green backing) and M36-style enlisted/NCO collar tabs, hand applied. It is completed with a pair of original private-purchase M36-pattern NCO shoulder boards. The tunic seems to be promoted along with the soldier.
The tunic shows numerous signs of service use, including period repairs and wear consistent with extended field use, giving it excellent character and an authentic combat-used appearance. The M40 pattern was introduced in 1940 as a development of the M36 Feldbluse, with the field-grey collar replacing the earlier dark-green collar, although M36-style modifications and components remained common on wartime tunics.
A particularly attractive example for a collection or display, with a good mannequin/display size and a very convincing period appearance.
Condition: good used/combat condition, with period repairs and wear as shown.

The cuff title is accompanied by four original period photographs, showing the young wearer in uniform and with fellow Marine-HJ personnel, providing an interesting documented grouping. The photographs give this piece considerably more historical context than a loose insignia alone.
Marinehelfer were young members of the Marine-HJ who were assigned to auxiliary service with the Kriegsmarine, particularly from 1943 onwards. They served in roles including coastal and naval anti-aircraft defence, communications and other support duties. The “Marinehelfer” cuff title was worn on the left sleeve of the uniform.
This example is the standard “Marinehelfer” version rather than “Marineoberhelfer”, and the gold/yellow edging is clearly visible. Contemporary accounts confirm that Marinehelfer cuff titles were worn on the uniform and that gold edging was associated with advancement to Marineoberhelfer.
