Personalized Army Info? - 11/12/2007 09:30 PM
Anyone have any info regarding the individual on this personalized Heer dagger (early Wingen)?
Back of crossguard inscribed:
Leutnant d.R.
Dr. Münzel
Panzerregiment 1
Erfurt
If he was a Reserve Lieutenant early enough to be in Panzer Regiment 1 (1935?) he may have achieved a pretty high rank by the end of the war. Actually, I am trying to tie together the individual on this dagger and a General Oskar Munzel who survived the war and subsequently served in the Bundeswehr.
Thanks for any assistance.
