A German Second War Infantry Assault Badge Document Grouping.

A nice grouping to a wounded German soldier Obergefreiter Zentes, a member of the 8th Company Grenadier Regiment 436. A5 size citation for the Wound Badge in black dated 7 October 1944. A very interesting document being a pass for a seriously disabled veteran dated ‘8 January 1946’ allowing the holder Zentes to get preferential treatment within society. A letter to Zentes father which includes the citation for the Infantry Assault Badge in silver dated 17 October 1944 pen signed by a Regimental commander. His German Arbeits book (work book) dated ‘5 January 1939’ and following right through until 1957, still with Swastika front cover. An interesting group, good condition (lot) £80-£120
