Photo album - Combat veteran, Heer and Stahlhelm

Hardcover cloth photo album with the year “1943” written on the front cover. It contains 24 photos, most of which feature the same individual by the name of Hans Krost (he’s featured in another album posted on the website). 7 photos show Krost in army uniform, with a written caption indicating that he was back home from the Eastern Front, dated 1943. Krost is a decorated combat veteran, as he is seen wearing the Iron Cross 2nd Class ribbon, the Infantry Assault Badge, the Wound Badge and the Hitler Youth Sports Badge in Gold in his photos. His rank shoulder patch indicates that he was a Gefreiter. There is also an intriguing photo of a group of uniformed men who, judging by their collar tabs, are wearing Stahlhelm uniforms. Several have swastika armbands and several have various medals pinned to their uniform (one is wearing the “Gallipoli Star”, so he must have fought in Turkey during WW1). The remaining photos show Krost and his family or friends in civilian clothing. Nice little album containing a few intriguing photographs.
