SS Marked RG34 Cleaning Kit with His name

[SVW1945]

Just receive this Rg34 kit arr43 , Named and SS marked. Looks like it could be real . Name is hard to read. Looks like josef Kalfta. The last name is on there twice top and bottom, where his first name is in the middle. Looks like it was done a long time ago. Has the black oiler and a appel chain dated 38. and both brushes. Came from a lady at a antique shop. This was the only military item she had. So what do you guys think. Real or was it added? Kinda hard to believe someone would do this. I paid $ 35.00 for it.

Missed this, you are right, scarce set with historical features.

SVW, you might want to start your research over at fold3, maybe this guy was a kia? You can also check the Volksbund Gräber Suche feature. Cheers

The last name definitely has 2 letters before the final a. Almost looks like double T’s just by the length of the top cross. Could be an h also.

You are right "Kaletta" is the most probable thing.

 

[SVW1945]

I think it is Kaletta . I attached some more photos of the last letters, You can see it better. Maybe TT or a H ? Let me know your thoughts .

Needs more research There was a Josef Kaletta in the german military that I found so far. But does not say much.

Strange the name is wroten twice there.

yes it is, And just the last name. Maybe he thought it was not clear enough ? Just my thinking.

 

[biggymu]

He was SS. He probably misspelled it the first time.
