Description

Kriegsmarine grouping to the engineer Johannes Mietbauer, who served aboard the "Bahia Castillo" (blockade runner) and the "Rudolf Albrecht" (tanker). 

Kriegsmarine Soldbuch. Issued on 8. May 1944. Original applied photo. "Wehrmachtsgefolge" stamped on the cover and first page. Only a few entries, but it is an interesting Soldbuch. His service aboard the "Rudolf Albrecht" is noted on page 12. "Wehrmachtsgefolge" = members of the Wehrmacht, but not soldiers". Very nice condition.

Certificate to Blockade Runner's Badge. Small type. Issued on 1.11.1941. Facsimile signature. Size: 10x14.5 cm.

Kriegsmarine photo album. The photos document his basic military training and his service on the southern front (Africa). Among them are some portrait photos, shots of the ships, Kriegsmarine soldiers in tropical uniforms, and two photos showing him with the Blockade Runner's Badge and a cuff title (AFRIKA ?). Some photos were taken from the album.

Good condition 2.
