Beautiful Waffen-SS Portrait of a couple on their engagement, as written on the backside in December 1939, their names are written on the backside: Elfriede Flach (21 1/2 years old) and Walter Meyer (23 years old). Without further research it might be difficult to confirm however I’ve found on Ancestry an SS-Sturmmann Walter Meyer, who belonged to the 11. Kompanie/ SS-Regiment “Deutschland” and was Killed in Action on 16.05.1940 in Zuid-Beveland (Netherlands). He was born 5 April 1917, which makes him 23 at the time of his death in 1940. There’s a big chance it could be him, however it will be difficult to proof.

Next to the “Deutschland” shoulder boards, he also wears the SA Sportabzeichen and DRL Sportabzeichen (as far I can see). He also seems to wear the ribbon bar for the Austrian medal, Sudetenland medal and one Sudetenland +Prague Castle Bar! First time I see it! Postcardsize.
