padro Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hi, just received this nice EK2 award doc to a Pioneer in the Bavarian 5th Res Pioneer Company, Josef Dobmeier. What makes it a bit more special is he was a recipient of the Bavarian Silver Bravery Medal. I get the general gist of the citation but I would really appreciate it if someone could please provide a full translation. Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spolei Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Hello Pete, he also got the bavarian servicemedal for 9 years and the woundbadge black. His las rank was Feldwebel He died on the 15. Dec. 1943. My english is to bad, to give you a correct translation. He rescues three infantrymen, which were spilled in a mine funnel (Minentrichter) During the rescue, only with spades, they were attackd by enemy artillery.At any time, a hostile counter-attack had to be expected. cheers Andreas Edited March 12, 2017 by spolei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
