Description
(1898 - 1969) German general in the Wehrmacht during World War II, a recipient of the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves. Mosel surrendered to American forces on 19 September 1944 after the fall of Brest which he commanded through a one-month siege. T.L.S. on air mail letterhead, 1p. legal folio, Nienburg, Jan. 18, 1962, to an American fan sending a photo (not included), and adding: '...it is not nice. It is copied from the original because only a few pictures from that time could be saved by my family when [Germany] collapsed...almost all the documents I owned are no longer available...The Red Army cleared out the apartment and my family fled to West Germany while I was a prisoner of war [in the U.S.]...' Two tiny holograph emendations, otherwise fine.
