Geb. Nach. Abt. 54
Hello,
I have this medal of Gebirgs- Nachrichten Abteilung 54 from 1942.
In very bad condition...
But, I'm interesting how many pieces were made and is it rare or no???

Hi Alfonso, I have no idea of how many were made? If you look up how many men were in the unit and say double it, I think that might be a fair way of guessing? They are not a common item. Pity about the condition.
Cheers, Ade.

Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

On the averse (photo 1), there is a tactical symbole of that unit with mountain flower margarete.
And, there are a lot infos about that medal and unit in the book about german Gebirgstruppen WWII.
