German WH Kurland Campaign Cufftitle
In a very good condition a hard to find German Wehrmacht Kurland Campaign Cufftitle.
The cufftitle comes in the original length of 24cm and is in a light used condition.
The Kurland cufftitle was approved on 12 March 1945 by Adolf Hitler, on the recommendation of the commander of the Army Group Courland (Kurland). It was the last German award to be instituted in World War II. Distribution began in late April 1945.
To qualify, a member of Army Group Courland would have to, between 1 September 1944 and 8 May 1945:
participate in at least three combat actions; or
serve a minimum of three months in the pocket;
if wounded, the cuff title could be awarded without fulfilling these criteria.
Those qualifying included personnel serving with rear services, including Organisation Todt, provided they served in the pocket for at least three months.
A very nice example from this hard to find cufftitle!
