Batterie/ Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 202. He’s missing since June 17, 1944 near Priekule, Latvia. Measuring: 6,8×9,7cm.

Ritterkreuz: “Awarded for the role he played in the hard-fought defensive battles north of Sytschewka in late 1942. Schramm’s battery was detached to help elements of the 5. Panzer-Division in the Wasusa sector. In a bloody fight for both sides, the battery managed to prevent an enemy breakthrough. Schramm particularly distinguished himself by destroying 12 tanks in one day, raising his total of tanks destroyed to over 30.” (via Tracesofwar)
