ahrtal Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Anyone know anything about Heer IR 117 in WWII? I've got a leather overcoat with 117 1st Lt. boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahrtal Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 Thanks, Richard. Would the boards and ciphers have been changed after it was absorbed into the 111 div.? The boards are original to the overcoat as far as I know. Maybe the owner died early on in the conflict. I've had it for about 50 years, and the boards characteristics/wear seem to bear out they were not replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Auld Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I think probably didn't come home and it stayed as he left it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
