Hi Martin,
Yes he's a tough old Swordsholder
Must admit i've never been sure why Waldermar hasn't attracted more attention from Historians , a combat level Infantry Swords Winner by 1943 who survived the ferocious combat in Southern Russia !! Amazing !!

Hi Paul,
how are you???
Indeed, amazing how he survived and what a brilliant achievement receiving his KC + O + S in almost 1 year. His nickname was something like "der Schreck der Kaukasus".....the fear of the Caucasus.
Perhaps his wife gets him away from the historicans?!
Best

I guess you're right, but she cannot do this anymore. She's even more fragile than him now. I saw the "Terror of Caucasus" again this year. He's now very weak, but still walks on his on feet (with the help of a wheeled walker). Gaza signed all the photos and books people asked him to.
Now that you guys mentioned, I'd love to read or see some special material on Gaza. What a sharp warrior!

Hi Julio,
I still remember the occasion when the german national anthem was played, everyone stood up, but "Gaza" had some difficulties standing up. I stood beside him and gave him a help with me arm. He did NOT want to sit
Still a sharp and clear mind, he has.
