Nice group of documents to Lt Hertel, Königlich Sächsischen Leib Grenadier regiment nr 100, although missing the EK citations and a picture (his WW2 Wehrpass must be out there), having all his medals confirmed is a nice touch, if anyone has any thoughts on signatures or other avenues of research please let me know, Questions, Why the late Prussian War Service Cross.....de-mobilisation? also why the late wound badge? and help with what companies he served with... Many thanks, Paul
