 WAFFEN-SS Soldbuch - SS Gebirgsjaeger Regiment 11 "REINHARD HEYDRICH"
Very nice original Waffen-SS SOLDBUCH to SS Sturmmann Josef PINTER.  Original issue Soldbuch from 1943.  He served in SS Gebgirgsjaeger Regiment 11 "Reinhard Heydrich" of the 6th SS Gebirgs Division NORD. He was born in 1923 in  Hungary.  Original photo and all pages present.  Filled with good entries including entry for Wound Badge in BLACK on July 26, 1944. 

The division was the only Waffen-SS unit to fight in the Arctic Circle when it was stationed in Finland and northern Russia between June and November 1941. It fought in Karelia until the Moscow Armistice in September 1944, at which point it left Finland. It fought in the Operation Nordwind in January 1945, where it suffered heavy losses. In early April 1945, the division was destroyed by the U.S. forces near Budingen, Germany.
