I am very, very busy, as within two weeks I have to control the final lay-out for one
of my newest books: Gorgets of the Third Reich (mentioned before, a
book in English
with 704 pages and over 1,500 photographs). The chapter about HY will have 34 pages
with interesting photographs and information. Some photographs are known, as I used
them also in my handbook!
So in between of all of my work (busy as a beehive) I would like to show some more
photographs from younger lads, wearing the typical double row of tunic.

First my good old friend Hans Ahrens, during his stay at the childrens home (Kinderhaus).
Note the one Litze upon the collar. A sign the lad is from the "Kinderhaus".
Further mrs. Viergutz with her sons Hans-Karl, Günter and Jürgen. The two older boys
do wear the regular tunics for elder boys with the double Litze; the youngest son the typical
tunic with one Litze. The photograph is from 1941.
Both photographs do show the MWP-abbreviation (Militár-Waisenhaus Potsdam) upon the
shoulder-straps.
Enjoy my friends............and learn!
