Richard Sysum Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 (edited) Hello Everyone This is one of the few army docs i have left but I find it an interesting group.The first doc is about the man winning a tank destruction strip on 16.10.1943.The second doc is a silver wound badge dated 16.10.1943 and the third doc is an EK1 doc dated 20.10.1943..Tanks are big heavy things you don't want to get in the way of but this man did hence the silver wound badge I guess....Best Regards Richard Edited January 5, 2006 by Richard Sysum
