Luftwaffe Flak EM visor (Gustav Binner, 1938)
Hi, hoping to pick this one up soon.
I found the Unit here:-
The Unit markings seem to correspond, the Leichte Flak Abteilung 84 (motorized) was formed from II/ Flak Regiment 14 in 1938, and you can see that earlier Unit crossed out as expected. Looks like the Unit had an eventful life, France, Russia, France again (Normandy), then the Ardennes attached to Kampfgruppe Peiper!
It seems to have had very little wear, just light wear/ sweat-stains at the front of the sweat-band, plus the initials.
I’m also quite intrigued by the fact that it was made in a town that no longer exists (as a German town that is), the town now being Wroclaw in Poland!
Regards, Paul
