Luftwaffe photo album to Leutnant Andreas Berchtold. He served as Flugzeugführer with 2. and 4./Kampfgeschwader 54. His unit was involved in the Allied invasion of Sicily (9. July to 17. August 1943) and Normandy "D-Day". The II. Group was stationed the whole year 1942 on the Eastern Front. There the unit attacked the bases of the partisans and railway stations as well as destroyed the rail network.
The album comes with a tank postcard to the front cover and the inscription "Meine Kriegserinnerungen". It shows nice portrait photos of him and his comrades. Shots of aircraft, including three excellent photos of a camouflaged aircraft. Photos of Oberstleutnant Volprecht Riedesel Freiherr zu Eisenbach (Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves winner, +1945) and General der Flieger Alfred Bülowius (Knight's Cross winner). Attached address tag "Andreas Berchtold, Nürnberg" inside.
The album contains numerous handwritten information by Andras Berchtold. So you can get a very good insight into his service.
