Original German WWII Flak Anti-Aircraft Artillery Unit Plaque - 2nd Battery Flak Replacement Battalion I / XIII - 15 1/2" x 9 1/4"

Original Item: One of a Kind. This is a lovely commemorative plaque that was purchased by members of a Flak Anti-Aircraft Artillery unit during WWII. Most likely they all had matching plaques made to remember their time in service. The wooden plaque measures 15 1/2"W x 9 1/4"H and has a plated white metal flak cast sculpture showing a Flak gun battery crew, complete with the gunner, loaders, and even a spotter with a range finder mounted to his shoulders in a frame. Below the sculpture is the a small brass plate that reads as follows:

2 / Flak Ers. BTL.
I / XIII

This indicates the 2nd Battery, Flak Ersatz (Replacement) Battalion I, XIII Flak Unit. Definitely a lovely piece from WWII with some nice research potential!
