Named Police M35

[Adravor]

Hello Forum,

its been a long time since i´ve posted on here - but now i have this coming in the mail and i had to share it.

A salty but really nice DD Police M35, made by SE and found in Norway.
It looks like someone scratched the Decals Post war, but i think it still has a nice look to it, with the decals atleast 40% remaining.

The ultimate buying point for me was the beautiful Name and Unit marking. 3./ Pol 7. which likely points to 3. Group of Polizei Regiment 7, from 1943 on SS-Polizei Regiment 7.
The Regiment served in Norway from 1943 on and did so till the end of the war, so i think its very likely the helmet belongs to that Regiment.
I did not find anything related to a Niederländer in this Regiment, but i will definitly continue my research in that direction.

Here is the beauty:

Congrats! Salty exterior but still solid. A great name and unit ID!

A very nice addition Adravor which ties in with its location nicely. A challenge to locate the owner as he is not necessarily of German origin given the large numbers of foreign members conscripted into these units.

The Stab and I Bataillon of SS Pol Rgt 7 were based at Trondheim.

II Bataillon at Spillum

III Bataillon at Narvik

The unit went into British captivity in 1945.

It finally arrived! And surprise: It has a second name! In the liner is written what I think could be Josef Niederländer. I will have to do more research in regards to that.
Here are some pics!
