Description
Unteroffizier Ernst Brackmann
Served with many units, although the most interesting is:
Festungs Pak Verband 5/XXVI
The staff of Fortress Anti-Tank Unit XXVI was established in January 1945 in Military District V as an army unit. In March 1945, the Fortress Anti-Tank Companies 1./XXVI to 10./XXVI were formed in Military District III (Berlin). The unit was deployed in the Frankfurt an der Oder area.
They were armed with the 8,8 cm Pak 43
Wounded with grenade splinters – 18.4.1945 – arrived at Beelitz in a Reserve Hospital.Â
Awards – War Merit Cross with Swords – Wounds Badge in Silver
Final Notes
He himself entered in a Promotion and EK1 & EK2 – I believe these to be self promotions and likely postwar as its with a ball point pen. Also the entry on page 17, “Schwere Jagdpanzer” is phoney. But still is an interesting Soldbuch given the small issues.
