great grandfathers bring back

I have a luger my great grandfather brought back from the war along with a mauser, another small pocket pistol and a p-38 which was unfortunately given away by my d-bag ex step father to pay a debt. Anyway Im just looking for any info I can get about this luger. My great grandfather passed away about 12 years ago now. The story goes, as told from my grandfather, my great grandfather was the son of german immigrants and spoke german. The luger and p38 were turned over to him by nazi officers as they surrendered. He did the translating. He was in the battle of the bulge, not sure where exactly or even his division/company etc. I would love to find that info also.

Specs on the luger:

G stamped
S/42
Sn 6900
All numbers match except mag
Eagle 63, 92 with square around it and what looks like 2 capitol A's smashed together on the right side
What looks like an upside down capitol T on the front below the barrel above the trigger guard

Holster has
Lederwarenwerk
Curt vogel
Cottbus
1938
Eagle with swastica and WaA94
Different eagle with swastica and M

I will try and get some pictures.
Any and all info is greatly appreciated
