Very nice US paratrooper wrist compass by Superior Magneto. Nicely dated and marked. These compasses where also known to been worn over the sleeve, the shoulder loops, webbing, or at the ankle over the jump boots. Wrist compasses were used both by officers and enlisted men. The strap is not the normal leather type but a period piece which came from an Elgin watch. A very nice example that would be hard to upgrade.

Nice short strap which was intended to attach the gasmask canister to the belt. Typical early/pre war example with 3 holes so the strap is adjustable in size and aluminium hardware.

Beautiful M36 field blouse grouping to Karl Adolf Glüth complete with sidecap, Wehrpass, documents and Harmonica manual. The group was recently found in household clearing in Germany and as far as I know has not been in a single collection before. The jacket is a textbook, non modified M36 field blouse dated 1939. The garment is in a good, large size with period sewn insignia. The left breast pocket is addorned with two sets of award loops with their original Infanteriesturmabzeichen (Schuco 41) and its unmarked Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz. The shoulderstraps are matching and nice early example with stonegrey backing material and tongues. The kragenlitzen are mounted, infantry examples. The garment retains 3 belt hooks and its Kragenbinde. The sidecap is in salty but untouched condition with period sewn insignia.

The Wehrpass has a number of interesting notes about Glüth; his family, awards, place of birth etcetera. Glüth enlisted in 1937 in Infanterie Regiment 18 which he served until his death 27.10.1942. He was trained with the 98K, MG34, P08 Luger, Lei.Gr.W. 36, Panzerbüchse 38, MP28 and MP38. He was promoted to Oberschützen 1.11.38, Gefreiter 1.12.38 and Unteroffizier 1.11.39. He was awarded the Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Silber 2.7.41, the Eisernez Kreuz II klasse 22.2.42, the Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz 22.2.42 and the Ostmedaille 4.8.42.

I have literally translated the most interesting battles noted in his Wehrpass. The war began for Glüth on 17.9.39 fighting at the Rhein, 18.10.39 at Saar, Kornbach. 9.5.40 he broke through to the Ärmelkanal, 15.5.40 the push to through Belgium to France, 21.5.40 fighting at the Somme, 5.6.40 second battle for France, 6.6.40 crossing the Somme, 8.6.40 following battles from the Somme to the Seine, 12.6.40 battle at the Seine, 19.6.40 battles south of the Seine and movement to the Loire, 20.6.40 crossing the Loire, 26.6.40 occupation of France. 3.9.40 he was moved to Coastal guard at the Atlantikküste. 25.3.41 he guarded the Kanalküste. 22.6.41 the battle from Bialystock and Minsk, 8.7.41 battle at Smolensk, 26.7.41 defensive battles at the Düna and Smolensk. 2.10.41 the double battle at Wjasma and Brjansk, breakthrough at the Dnepr positions. 4.10.41 the move to Moscow, Woronesj and Kalinin.
