(21151A)
Erich Krause, Lance Corporal Infantry.

Infantry Assault Badge (in Silver), 31.3.41. Crude field issue issued by the CO of Infanterie-Regiment 506, Oberst.

He served 1941 with 1./Infanterie-Regiment 506 of the 291.Infanterie-Division 1941 active in Northern Russia. Was most probably issued for his assault days in 1940 (France etc.) because operation Barbarossa was not started when this award document was issued.
