Heer Wehrpass – Gefreiter Gores – Grenadier Regiment 117 (111 Inf Div) – Sad Last Letter – Letter to family – KIA 1943 (Sold)
Heer Wehrpass to Gefreiter Gores, from Düsseldorf. Grenadier Regiment 117 ( 111 Inf Division) After crossing the bow, the division marched via Dubno, Kiev and the Dnieper to the area east of Poltava. From June 1942, the division took part in the advance into the Caucasus. The advance of the division went via Shakhty, Rostov, Novorossiysk, Krassnodar and Armavir to the Terek near Mozdok. From January 1943 the division then withdrew over the Kuban bridgehead to the Mius position near Taganrog. In the second half of the year, the withdrawal continued via Uspenskaya, Melitopol to the Nikopol bridgehead. In March 1944, the division moved to the Crimea, where it was used at Dschankoi, in the Sivash bridgehead and in Sevastopol. In a last letter to his wife, he wrote how he wished it was all a dream and that he could come home to be with her and the kids, and that she should stay strong. A sad letter to read, in clear German. A letter from the company commander gave the news to her a few months later that he was killed in action.

Original price was: $275.00.$245.00Current price is: $245.00.Hard to find Third Reich ID for a member of the Baustab Speer! In the camps “foreign” or forced laborers from occupied territories, e.g. Poland, also prisoners of war, but also “unworthy of defense” Germans, e.g. homosexuals, politically persecuted, “half-Jews” and towards the end of the war also concentration camp prisoners from all countries had to work According to the protocols of the Wannsee Conference of January 20, 1942, they should also be murdered in principle. In some cases, they were also temporarily housed there for onward transport to other areas of operation, e.g. to France (see above). There were residential barracks in which, in some cases, entire families of “foreign workers” with children who, as evidenced by medical records found, were forced to work, were also housed, as well as work barracks – also for women, e.g. sewing rooms for “Eastern workers”, sick barracks and shielded prison camps. After evaluating a flight image, there were 18 standardized barracks in the center of the Eichkamp camp with around 2,000 people – around 100 per barracks – including guards. He also served with OT Russland Süd behind the frontlines in southern Russia. It would seem he was dismissed in November 1943 in Berlin Grunewald

R.A.D Dienstausweis for Oberfeldmeister Simmer who was badly injured at the front rendering him 50% disabled. The ID for his disability is also inside the front pocket of the RAD ID. Interestingly he was awarded the following awards: Iron Cross Second Class General Assault Badge Eastern Front Medal Krim Arm Shield Rum award against Communism Sports Badge RAD Service Medal A nice little lot to a more senior RAD member, not often seen for this rank. Sadly it has been denazified although this was likely as it was used postwar for identification.

Ausweis – Stenotypistin Jacob – Reichswirtschaftsministerium Berlin 1944 (sold)
A rare waterproof ID for the: Reichswirtschaftsministerium in Berlin on the Reimannstr 21. Issued to a young lady called Imgard Jacob who worked as a stenotypist. I have not seen another ID like this, and anything for the RWM is not often found, especially for workers inside the building. This Pass gained her access to one of the most powerful buildings in the NS Regime. What was the RWM? From 1933 to 1945 ) the Reich Ministry of Economics was a central institution with whose help the Nazi regime put many of its political goals into practice, for example fighting unemployment, arming the Wehrmacht, promoting the armaments industry, preparing for the war economy as well as the Aryanization of German economic life. By the end of the war, more and more tasks and responsibilities were given to other Reich ministries. The former economics ministers Hjalmar Schacht, Hermann Göring, Walther Funk and Albert Speer were later among the defendants in the Nuremberg trial of the main war criminals.

Reichskulturkammer ID – Dancer Anny Dlesk – Wartime Theater – Vienna – Löwinger Bühne & Raimundth Theater (On Hold)
Quite a rare ID for the Reichskulturkammer Many IDs for this obscure department in the NS regime are for quite boring roles, this on the other hand is something of a unique item. Anny Dlesk, a professional dancer! She was employed in Vienna dancing for convalescent soldiers , and soldiers on leave. She danced for the Löwinger Bühne – which was also known as a front theatre. Her career as a dancer ended when the last theatre she was employed at was bombed in 1944, called the Raimundth in Vienna. The picture in the ID shows her character, and is a very flashy photo for this era. She is mentioned in a 1944 yearbook from the theatre. —- What is the RKK? The Reich Chamber of Culture (Reichskulturkammer) was a government agency in Nazi Germany. It was established by law on 22 September 1933 in the course of the Gleichschaltung process at the instigation of Reich Minister Joseph Goebbels as a professional organization of all German creative artists.[1] Defying the competing ambitions of the German Labour Front (DAF) under Goebbels’ rival Robert Ley, it was meant to gain control over the entire cultural life in Germany creating and promoting Aryan art consistent with Nazi ideals. Every artist had to apply for membership on presentation of an Aryan certificate. A rejected inscription de facto resulted in an occupational ban.
