You are bidding on an EXCEPTIONAL example of a WW2 German Luftwaffe Afrika Korps Armelband (Arm Band) and Documents! These all belonged to Unteroffizier Walter Menedetter who served with Fliegerhorstkommandantur (E) 20/VI! Formed on June 20, 29140, sadly, this uit was destroyed in Tunis in 1943.
Made of a soft tan machine embroidered “camel hair” material, this Cuff Title is in SUPERB condition! it is 100% ORIGINAL, and as mentioned, belonged to Uffz. Walter Menedetter. Features the word “Afrika” on the front, which is flanked by palm trees on each side. All braiding is a bright silver. The RARE features is that it includes the ORIGINAL Certificate, dated may 1943, signed by a Major. Also included are:
Certificate to 1939 War Merit Cross 2nd Class with swords. Issued on 15.12.1942.
Hitler Youth Membership Badge in gold with Certificate B-type. RZM “M1/120” maker marked. The pin was removed and a small hole was drilled, most likely to attach to a cap.
Ribbon bar to 1939 War Merit Cross 2nd Class with swords
German-Italian Campaign Medal.
As all items are over 75 years old, there are some marks and wear from use and age…however all details are clearly legible. A FANTASTIC addition to any collection or display!
