There was a Man Named Krupps in Landsberg being held as a war criminal. Unfortunately my mother can't remember his first name. He apparently owned a factory that supplied ammunition for Hitlers army during the war.

I want his name, because my father was stationed at Landsberg and he had Mr. Krupps make 2 ashtrays that are inscribed with my mothers name and where she lived on the front, and show all the locations my parents vacationed in on the back. They are made from spent shells, but are polished and have exceptional carving. I am packing them away for my daughter, but would like to include a note with the mans name.
