Footnote: this Luftwaffe General’s Brocade Belt & Buckle belonged to Walter von Hippel (27 May 1897 – 29 November 1972), who was a highly decorated Generalleutnant in the Luftwaffe during World War II and who commanded several Flak Divisions. He was also a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross 1939 and Pour le Mérite, among many decorations he received during WWI and WWII. Walter von Hippel was captured in May 1945 by British troops and was held until May 1948. Belt also comes with signed photo of him, and Angolia’s hand written note. (Illustrated on pages 150, 634 of Angolia’s book).
