    RARE WWII German Death
    Card for a 19 Year Old Who Died on the Western Front FOLLOWING THE INITIAL JUNE 6, 1944 ALLIED DDAY INVASION
    DESCRIPTION:
    RARE original WWII German Death card for a 19 year old grenedier who died on the Western Front following THE INITIAL 6/6/44 DDAY NORMANDY INVASION.
    This is another of my DDAY cards collected over 25 years. I don't have many remaining, and when sold they are gone.
    Specifically, "Grenadier Josef Fuchs, farm worker's son, who died a hero's death during the heavy fighting on the western front on July 22, 1944, aged 19." Nice photo wearing uniform and jaunty cap.
    Card is in excellent condition, and always HARD TO FIND SUCH A NICE, early DDAY RELATED CARD..... This card puts a name and face and story to a soldier who would otherwise just be a forgotten statistic.
    I follow ebay's rules strictly, and no bids will be accepted from Germany, Austria, or any other places where it is unlawful to ship to.
    I try to collect and sell only unique and higher quality WWII and WWI soldier memorial cards rather than the more common ones usually seen on ebay.
    Please see my auction list for other unusual ones!!
