Exceptional Father–Son Grouping – SA, Organisation Todt & U.S.-Born Ski-Jäger Soldier
€0,01
A truly remarkable and rare family grouping spanning two generations, with service in both the Sturmabteilung (SA) and Organisation Todt, as well as elite Ski-Jäger front-line combat.
The father served in the SA and later with the Einsatzgruppe Oberbauleitung Skopje of the Organisation Todt. His son — notably born in Cleveland, Ohio, USA — returned to Germany and served with the 13. Kompanie / Ski-Jäger-Regiment 1, 1. Ski-Jäger-Division, a specialized mountain and winter warfare unit.
Highlights include:
-
Several superb portrait photographs of the son in Hitlerjugend uniform, plus family photos.
-
A rare Ski-Jäger cap badge (two piece!) mounted on an old leather document bag.
-
Original Jäger cloth insignia.
-
Medals and awards of the son: Wound Badge, Hitlerjugend Shooting Badge, Hitlerjugend Proficiency Badge in Silver, 2x SA Sports Badge in Silver, rank insignia.
-
The father’s War Merit Cross 2nd Class (KVK2).
-
A small U.S. flag, possibly brought with him from America before or during the war — a tangible link to his unusual birthplace and journey to Germany.
Condition: As seen, with genuine period wear and patina.
An extraordinary and historically fascinating grouping, combining political, construction, and combat service — and with the rare twist of a U.S.-born Wehrmacht soldier in an elite winter warfare division.
