Death Card--Waffen SS Sturmmann in Camo

[bigmacglenn]

I picked this one up from a German seller recently...I haven't seen many in camo...

In Memory
Of our only, good-hearted son, grandson and nephew
SS-Sturmmann
Franz Ofenmuller
Recipient of the Wound Badge
Who fell on Feb.8, 1944 in the central section of the Eastern Front,
at the thriving age of 20.

The Reverse reads:
"Living means suffering
suffering means dying
dying means living"
