Description
Interesting Soldbuch opened in 1942 to Günther Heinitz.
He was serving with the 22 Marine Flak Regiment, and was based in Saint Nazaire France.
The unit commander was: Knights Cross Holder Mecke (won during the infamous raid on St Nazire by British Commandos) I am also selling an original photograph of Mecke with his Knights Cross.
On the 26.12.1944 – Heinitz was awarded the Marine Flak Badge.
Interestingly, this unit would hold out in the Festung St Nazaire these Soldbücher are highly sought after. Saint Nazaire was the last town in France to be liberated. Surrendering three days after the war officially ended.
It seems he was then taken POW and in various camps right up till 1947, he kept a record in pencil of the places and times in the Soldbuch.
