Tellermine carrier !!
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
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

Re: More from the Narva Front !!
Very nice Tellermine carriers. Used to have 2 of thosebut the "Tankist" award is a really great find!
Cheers
Re: More from the Narva Front !!
The thing i find most facinating is the fact that this tankman award has been in the ground since the owner either was killed, or lost it somehow. Voluntary or not no one knows......
Wonderful finds! So take care of the memories as well, when these pieces has been removed from the ground, they will never come back.........
