Harmel I have to ask ............ does it appear from the RK bio series that he left the unit or stayed in with the Stug component of the 16th Pz due to the wearing of the field grey wrap ? just trying to understand this if possible.

Hi!

From e-bay: any ideas who this RKT Generalleutnant (perhaps General - I can't quite make out whether there is 1 pip or 2) is?

Regards,

VJK

Hello!
This is my first post here, and I was wondering if someone could help me Identify this RKT?
