A very large and unique legacy from a German family! This legacy consists mainly of letters, but also includes newspaper clippings, booklets, etc. It concerns a mother, a father, and their two sons. The father served in the Wehrmacht and likely returned alive. Both sons were killed in action during the war.
There are so many letters, and therefore little research has been done, and the letters haven't been counted. Therefore, they are very interesting for further research!
One son was a lieutenant, and the other served first in the RAD and then in the Wehrmacht. There are also letters sent to a son (presumably the leutenant) in 1945. Almost all of these are stamped "zuruck" and/or "zuruck nach absender." These letters are also almost all unopened.
Also, some of the letters are in small feldpost boxes (with labels on them) and the large box that everything is in also belongs to the family!

Original German Iron Cross 2nd Class award certificate
Original German Iron Cross 2nd Class award document. The certificate is issued to Obergefreiten Viktor Ingenbrand, who served with the 2./Div.Füs.Btl.131. It was issued on November 6, 1943, and signed by a generalmajor (no investigation was conducted to determine which generalmajor). As can be seen in the photos, the certificate is in poor condition; there is a tear near the signature (this has been taped on the back).
