    Its a rare find from Crete and from an elite Airborne unit with a charismatic officer corp. A very nice addition in any Ekm collection and personally more than equal to any Waffen SS example.

    Mob nummer 62818 Stab II./L.L.Sturm-Regiment 1, a cursory look at casualties on Ancestry to this unit, not a quick job brought no results.

    If this is a fresh find from Kreta then its find location might help pin down the unit and perhaps even the owner, assuming he was a casualty.

    Sturm Regiment 1 and the Fallschirmjäger arm in general suffered egregious losses for Kreta.

    The token was found in this area, the best: without any detectors.

    I think the Erkennungsmârke you âre showing is not from the LL-Sturm-Rgt 1. This Erkennungsmârke cân only be from the II. Stâb FJR 5 or I. Stâb FJR 7. Neither of them fought in Crete. These units were deployed in Âfrica / Itâly. However, it is possible thât the soldier wâs trânsferred to ânother unit thât fought on Crete. Â very nice Erkennungsmârke. I like to show one of the L.L. Sturm Regiment ând ânother from FJR 6. All hâve the sâme MOB number.
