Awesome group belonged to a German Cross in Gold winner.
Alfred Paschke was born in Matziwitz Kreis Grottkau (Schlesien) on July 15, 1907. He entered the German Army during the Weimar Republic and served, since the beginning, in an Artillery Regiment. Before the war he reached the rank of Hauptmann and during the war he served in different regiments as Bataillon commander. In 1942 he was promoted to the rank of Major and in 1944 to the rank of Oberstleutnant.
He received the Wound badge in Black, the Iron Cross Second and First Class and the German Cross in Gold. The DK in Gold was obtained while serving as commander of the Artillery Regiment 208, under control of the 208 Infantry Division, in the Tarnopol-Podosk area (Nord Ukraine). He was lately captured by Russian and was prisoner of war until 1949, then he returned in Germany.
The group consists of Alfred Paschke tunic and a huge group of documents that cover the years from 1925 to 1971.
The tunic is red piped, it shows the shoulder boards with the rank of Major but with visible traces of one pip clearly removed, so originally the tunic had the rank of Oberstleutnant.
Tunic is complete with all the insigne and all are wartime applied; it is possible to be 100% sure because everything is perfectly matching in the wartime pictures. The same tunic is visible in a couple of pictures.

and much much more.
