Description
Small grouping to SS-Sturmmann Erich Weiss serving with Nachrichten-Zug SS-Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 27 "Handschar". 
 
Certificate to the Iron Cross 2nd Class. 4. January 1945 (!) dated. "Waffen-SS - 13.SS-Freiw.b.h.Geb.Div. (Kroatien)" stamped. Original ink signature of SS-Oberführer Desiderius Hampel (later Brigadeführer, Knight's Cross).
Folded once. 
 
The original Soldbuch was lost which is why he got a so-called "Soldbuchersatzbescheinigung" postwar in the POW Dachau. It tells you more about his personal details. Folded. Cracks. Bad condition.
 
Two original photos. Both show Weiss.
