Unlike Tony and Dave Mosher, I have very little in the way of cloth, but this M1910 Feldrock provides an interesting subject.
According to Histories of 251 Divisions of the German Army Which Participated in the War (1914-1918), the 202nd Division was rated as third class. More compelling, however, is the statement: When it appeared opposite the United States front on November 3, [1918] the division had been completely shattered. The 411th Regiment, for instance, had only three companies each with a rifle strength of 100 to 110 men.
I'm glad I didn't walk around in this Leutnant's boots.
