Waffen-SS
Photo Album & Document Grouping - 9.
SS Panzer Division "HOHENSTAUFEN" -
NORMANDY, HOLLAND - TOP RARE!
Amazing grouping to a man who served
in the SS Panzer Division
Hohenstaufen. Album contains
173 photos, all from his SS Service.
He was an original cadre member of
Hohenstaufen - one of the most
desirable and sought after units to
find material from! Almost every
photo is captioned on the reverse
side with dates and locations. You
can see the man's face easily
throughout. The album perfectly
chronicles the history of SS-Hohenstaufen
from formation in France in 1943
through Einsatz in Tarnapol in 1944,
return to Normandy June 1944 after
D-Day, fighting in Normandy (Caen,
Argentan, Epernay, etc.), retreat
out of the Falaise Pocket through
Belgium and into Holland (Arnhem),
fighting in Hungary in 1945 right up
until war's end with photos of him
in POW camp! Fantastic content
showing SS camo in wear, fighting in
Normandy, super photo of a
JAGDPANTHER in action (!!), top
photo of a knocked out PANTHER
in EPERNAY in July 1944, SS troops
taking shelter under vehicles from
American JABOs, Also comes with a
LARGE folder of original documents
including a few cover and photo page
of his Soldbuch (photo stamped
Hohenstaufen), many orders and
documents related to his being
called up to the SS, SS-Hohenstaufen
documents including proportions,
origin propaganda leaflets, SS
Fuhrerschein, SS Feldpost, Nord and
Hohenstaufen cufftitles
(reproductions, I think) and much
more. So many super rare photos! It
looks like the man was a
Waffenmeister which, I presume,
enabled him to have the opportunity
to store his camera and film
throughout all their movements.
