[QUOTE=AZPhil;746175]If you don't mind me asking what is the little leather pouch in the display with the Infanterie Sturmabzeichen and shoulder boards on the right in the upper right corner?

That grouping belonged to a RAD member. He lives in the town I work and I met him last Summer. He gave me all of his items and the pouch was his father's. It is a coin pouch he carried in WW1 and gave to the son for his time in WW2. Since, I have learned it was common to carry a coin pouch during WW1. I attempted to interview this RAD member and he gave me the cold shoulder. Fair enough, I thank him for sharing what he did.
The pic of the RAD member saluting was added by me for effect.
