Mark McM Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Gentlemen, Can anyone shed light on the nature of this inscription? It appears to be between military medical staff. This particular degen bears a gorgeous Wurttemburg hilt. Any feedback would be appreciated, particularly if some detail regarding the named officers was known!
