RaD Flag

[Gwar]

Hello fellow collectors and friends...
I have not been able to purchase a "RaD" flag as of yet but would like to..
The unique opportunity has arisen and at probably a good price..
My question is this... Is this item genuine in your opinions ??
And when should I walk away price wise... Although, if deemed original I may go a little bit over board as I really desire one of these for a back drop in my never ending collection of Rad items.. This is the only photo I have available and I apologise for that.. Thanks for all you help...Gwar

Hi,As you are interested in the RAD, I thought you would like to see this photo of one of relatives, Erwin Mutshler(spelling may be wrong). I was told he fought in Stalingrad, was captured and was one of the few thousand POWs to return home years after the war.

Alex S, Thank you for sharing.. Can you see the patch number ?? if so we could identify unit.. G

A pleasure. I think the numbers are 271 over 13. Not very clear, but when I find the original photo it may be. My family were from the Nekarsulm, Stuttgart area. I think he was too. Alex

Maybe XXVII Baden 270-279, Others may add to this...G

Thanks, In my profile, I said it was my uncle Albert who was in Stalingrad. I have since discovered that I had the wrong relative, It was Erwin. Photo of Albert.
