Description
Scarce document grouping to Fallschirmjäger Major Fritz Stagat. Stagat is listed as commander of III./Fallschirmjäger-Artillerie-Abteilung 3 (Abteilungskommandeur: Major Hans-Eberhard von Bauer). Furthermore documents confirm he serving with I./Fallschirmjäger-Artillerie-Abteilung 2 and 6./Fallschirmjäger-Artillerie-Abteilung 1.
 
DIN A4 size certificate for the Luftwaffe Honor Plate (Ehrenschale für hervorragende Kampfleistungen). Awarded to Stagat as a Hauptmann on 29.9.1944 "in Anerkennung seiner hervorrangenden Tapferkeit und der vorbildlichen Führung seiner Abteilung bei den Kämpfen um Shitomir und Radomyschel". Facsimile signature of Göring. Folded once. Two holes. Very rare!
 
Document issued by Fallschirmjäger A.O.K from 14.4.1945 confirming the promotion of Stagat to a Major. 
 
8.6.1945 issued document ringed by a Leutnant confirms that Stagat actually still owned following medals as a POW: Iron Cross 2nd Class, Iron Cross 1st Class, Ground Assault Badge, East Medal, "Afrikamedaille" (German-Italian Campaign Medal).
 
Oberwachtmeister promotion document  from August 1938. A 1942 promotion letter to a "Zollsekretär". 
 
Yellow driving instructor ID card "Wehrmacht-Fahrlehrerschein" to Stagat serving with Fallschirm-Art.Rgt.2 issued 3.7.1944 by 2.Fallschirmjäger-Division. "Erweitert und gl.Kettkw.bis zu 10 Tonnen".
Another grey civil driving license as well as his Customs ID Card with original applied photo (swastika overpainted).
 
Finally, two postwar documents. One sent from "Deutsch Dienststelle" states many interesting details on his service time such as his dog tag code, units he served with as well his promotions.
