Hey gang....Here's my Eickhorn unit marked RAD Hewer. Got the original hanger with it to boot! Unit markings show that this piece was actually owned by the specific unit and issued to a number of men....amazing that it's still in this kind of condition. I think these unit owned pieces are harder to find. Given the squirrel motto - this piece is a pre'38 made item.
As for the markings .... according to the Littlejohn book on III Reich labor organizations published by Bender, it looks like the Hewer would have been the property of Abteilung 804 out of the Arbeitsgau (work district) of Magdeburg.
