28 Nov. 2019 The adress the original owner of an accordion lost during World War II wrote into the small case of an accordion. The adress helped (US) Lieutenant General Scott A. Kindsvater to find Mrs. Christel Nierhoff which is the younger sister of original owner Mia Kupp. General Kindsvater inherited the accordion from his grandfather who found the instrument with a fallen German soldier during World War II. Mrs. Nierhoff is a descendent of the accordion’s original owner; General Kindsvater returned the instrument to symbolise the long-standing and cooperative relationship between the two NATO Allies.
