Perhaps his Father or Grand Father, who fought in the Alps? 2e Division was formed in 1938 from the former Austrian 6e Mountain Division....

Ha Ha no - these are all pictures I've had for a while ; in fact , I've not seen so many interesting pics on eBay.de recently ; but then again I've tried to stay off to save the pennies :wink:

There's a few more still to come ....

Ok , another climbing picture, just for you M. Not the best quality but a great picture nonetheless, as it shows a Gebirgsjager under instruction...

Not sure what it is Matt - doesn't look like a knife, could be a knot ? One thing I didn't mention is that he appears to have no Edelweiss on his cap so this is pre '39 picture..

Or handle of the kletterhammer... Seems odd to be on left side. Unless photo is reversed.
