Description

An extensive grouping to Oberst Otto Radtke serving as a member of the personal staff of GFM Hugo Sperrele.

Comes with 220 photos with at least 50 or more of Sperrle and the man together with other Knight's Cross winners, super studio portraits of him, visiting airbases, conferring with officers, etc.

His Wehrpass is very well filled out. Nice photo of him with insignia of Major, lists all promotions up to rank of full Oberst! Interestingly, there is an additional promotion to General that has been crossed out - a story here somewhere. Many awards: 1914 Iron Cross 1st and 2nd Class, Sudetenland Medal with "Prager Burg", Clasp 1939 to Iron Cross 1st and 2nd Class, Pilot's Badge, and more. 

Furthermore other documents from him.

A nice grouping!
