    Schutztruppe Veteran with DSWA-medal - nice sharp picture :-)


    Recommended Posts

    Hi all,

    from time to time I find a picture of such fine quality that I instantly like it. One of them is this one of a Schutztruppe veteran of the battles against the Herero and Nama in 1904-06 wearing the Südwestafrika-Denkmünze für Kämpfer 1907. It was taken that year (stamp to the lower right) in Schleiz (Heinrich Körner). Unfortunately no name, but there's always something, isn't it? I am also not able to decipher the Gefechtsspangen / battle-clasps but perhaps one of you has an idea?

    Cheers ArHo
