Wehrmacht Artillerie Sterbebilder - Wehrmacht Artillerymen

[IrishGunner]

Sterbebilder are a great way to add to a focused collection. I'm not a big TR collector, but these sterbebilder allow me to collect some artillery and touch upon the medals/decorations of the time without the cost (and risk of fakes).

First up, a Gefreiter from a leichten Artillerie Regiment, with the EK2, Krimshild, Ostmedaille, and Romanian decoration.

Here is his entry in the Volksbund Database.

August 1943 wasn't a good month to be called Johann Brunner as four such named soldiers were killed in that month!
