Very interesting Marine-HJ grouping to Scharführer Fritz K. serving as HJ leader and commander of 1. Fähnlein of Bann 17 Marine-HJ Gefolgschaft (Wuppertal-Barmen I.
Fritz K. was born on 11.8.1926 and lived in Wuppertal-Barmen. Checking his name on google, we found out that Dr.rer.nat. Fritz K. died on 27.7.2017.
This grouping includes the original file of his unit consisting of 77 original green ID cards including his own personal ID card. Fritz K. joined the DJ on 1.4.1937 and served with Marine-HJ from 1.10.1941.
Another lot of blank green cards is part of this grouping. All these cards were kept inside a period time wooden cigar box which is interestingly HJ unit stamped twice.
Other very interesting document are part of this grouping such as a unit list of 1. Marine-Gefolgschaft I.17 which lists him on No. 1 as the commander.
Part of the grouping were a couple of interesting period time books which are all Marine-HJ / Kriegsmarine related.
The rarest is "Marine-Hitler-Jungend im Dienst". An illustrated service manual which is very hard to find! It is "Fritz K." named and "I./17." unit marked.
Inside the cigar box were his personal HJ leader's lanyards (Scharführer and Kameradschaftsführer) including a whistle on original lanyard and one enamel HJ cap badge. Furthermore, an unknown white armband which is certainly Marine-HJ related.
Very rare Marine-HJ cap with original attached enamel cap badge and "1/17 Wuppertal-B.1/17". Blue silk lining with intact celluloid diamond with a golden maker's mark. Underneath the sweat.band is the original attached RZM tag.
Never cleaned and still very dusty. One small hole.
Collar dickie with original attached name tag. Again, dusty and never cleaned. Another dickie without name tag. Triangle shape rip.
Naval knot as well as HJ leather knot with black cravat. A single shoe lace.
All was kept in an old cardboard box with a tag "MHJ" to the top (Marine-HJ). Untouched grouping available on the market the first time.
