Chris Boonzaier Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Some time ago I picked up not one but 2 Militärpass belonging to Uffz. George Hofmann.... Fantastic early Ypres area battles... Poelcapelle, Langemark etc.... more "Ypres" you cannot find! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Nice! I used to have lots to do with Ypres including the remains of a gound dug pickelhaube and a 14 Star to a man taken POW in October 1914. I probably still have some bits and pieces somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Great write up and reminded me of a medal group I have to a man killed in the firing line near Hooge, the day before Koopmann was wounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
