Interesting Scarce Grouping of Oberfeldwebel Heinrich Wittenborg. He served with the 12. Kompanie/ Infanterie-Regiment 167 (later Grenadier-Regiment) of the 86. Infanterie-Division and afterwards with the Ski-Jäger-Regiment 2 of the unique 1. Ski-Jäger-Division. Soldbuch was opened on August 29, 1939! Includes top I.D. Photo! The EK1 is written somewhere in on the awards page, it may be a postwar addition. He eventually reached the rank of Oberschirrmeister. Condition is not that good after 6 years of war, see scans.
During his service he earned 7 awards! (not included the Bronze & Silver grades of the KBA that aren’t noted and the possible postwar added EK1). He earned the Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse, Deutsches Schutzwall-Ehrenzeichen, Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen, Ostmedaille, Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse, Kraftfahrbewährungsabzeichen in Gold and Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse.
