Gordon Craig Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Sugarcreekflats,This would be a stein for the 3rd company of Panzer Aufkl?rung (reconnaissance) Battalion #12. You appear to have an extra letter in Aufkl. The stein could have been purchased by a person during their service time. I don't have a OOB for BW Panzer divisions handy so I can not tell you which division this battalion served with.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
