Your welcome Roger.
John!
So it was you who dug this relic out of the woodwork in Budapest.
Well I have to thank you too. I do appreciate what it represents.
it's not often that you find an presentation dagger from a heavy duty Nazi who was also a Pour Le Merite winner and who also had a famous son Ernst von Delius who was a the team mate of Rosemeyer the most famous of German race car drivers. Both driving for Auto Union (Audi). Both dying one year apart on the race track.
http://forix.autosport.com/8w/au-sa37.html Being a bit of a historian I really admire a piece like this. The denazification and the neglect just adds to the story in this unique time in history and the persons and regime.
Walter von Delius died in a U.S. POW camp in 1945.
This dagger found the right home. Thanks for finding her John.
Nice to be able to share these things with you guys. Afterall...you understand.
