On December 1, 1942, the division was reorganized as Motorized Division 608 with six companies. In 1944/45, the division was subordinate to Army Group North. It seems that Pormann made it back to Germany – as he was in a hospital in Rudolstadt in Feb of 1945. Nice various entries for foreign weapon systems, as well as an Iron Portion, FührerPaket. There is a very interesting fold out at Infantry School – He was shooting the L.M.G 13 and Italian Rifle… It seems that Erich Pormann made it back to Berlin in 1945 his home city, where on the 10.09.1945 – he died in in Friedrichsfelde – due to a weak heart among other complications.

He was awarded the Following Awards: Iron Cross Second Class Iron Cross First Class Schaumburg-Lippe Cross The Hanseatic Cross KuK Military Cross Wounds Badge – Wounded Twice in WW1 He fought in France, Romania, Italy and Russia with the following unit: The Westfälisches Jäger-Bataillon Nr. 7 (7th Westphalian Jäger Battalion) of the Imperial German Army played a significant role in World War I, fighting on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. Initially part of the XX Army Corps, the battalion saw action at the Battle of Tannenberg on the Eastern Front before transferring to Italy and then the Western Front in 1918. The battalion was known for its elite status and experience in mountain warfare, having fought in various theaters including the Vogesen, Alps, and Karpathans. Here’s a more detailed look at the battalion’s involvement in WWI: Formation and Early Service: The battalion was formed in 1815 and saw action in the Franco-Prussian War and other conflicts before WWI. In 1914, it was garrisoned at Ortelsburg (modern Szczytno, Poland) and was part of the XX Army Corps. Eastern Front: The battalion initially served on the Eastern Front, including notable engagements like the Battle of Tannenberg. Shifting Fronts: In 1917, the battalion was transferred to Italy, and in the spring of 1918, it was moved to the Western Front. Elite Status and Training: Jäger battalions were considered elite units within the German Army, known for their training and experience in mountain warfare and raiding tactics. They were often used as assault troops and to revitalize sectors occupied by older troops. Distinctive Features: The 7th Jäger Battalion, like other Jäger units, was typically commanded by younger officers compared to their infantry counterparts. In 1932 he joined the NS Stahlhelm Bund, with Sturm 22 as the Doctor he left the NS Stahlhelm Bund in 1935. The documents are unique, as finding any higher ranks for the Stahlhelm Bund is nearly impossible, the books are usually nearly empty or have no photo. In this case, there is the NS Deutscher Frontkämpfer Bund ID with Uniformed picture.
