Johann-Joachim Voß – Schützen-Regiment 93 (13.Pz.Div.)

€0,01

Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo plus Cards of Johann-Joachim Voß. Oberleutnant Johann-Joachim Voß (03.09.1910 † 10.03.1982) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on May 27, 1942 as Oberleutnant und Führer of the 5. Kompanie/ Schützen-Regiment 93 of the 13. Panzer-Division.

On the 08.03.1942 the 13. Panzer-Division was locked in fierce defensive combat with attacking Soviet forces. Among the defending German units was the 5./Schützen-Regiment 93, which was tasked with holding a key position within the Mius bridgehead known to the Germans as the “Limekiln”. On this day the Kompanie lost control of this position, and its commander (Oberleutnant Graf Yorck) became a casualty due to a headshot. However Leutnant Voß took his place and proceeded to launch a determined and successful counterattack that managed to recapture this key position. (Source: Tracesofwar)

 

Provenance: This signature comes from one of the largest postwar signature collection I’ve ever commissioned. This collection was started by a Waffen-SS Veteran, Werner H., in the 1950’s until he passed away.
