My father passed away about a year ago, I found about 10 steins he had brought back from overseas while in the Army. The one in particular that I am interested in learning about has the mark of Reinhold Merkelback. It has a pewter lid with the dates 1939-40 on it, also says "Freiheitskampf", which I assume is Hitler. I was born in Germany so I am very interested in the background of this stein. It is small, Blue and white, with pictures of soldiers surrounding a head shot that has a banner that reads "Erinnerung" above it and "an meine DIENSTZEIT", below it. If anyone has any information on this, please let me know. Thank You..Lisa
