Harald Hein

Combat Sports

Harald Hein (19 April 1950 to 20 May 2008) was a German foil fencer. He competed at the Summer Olympic Games and won a gold medal in the team foil event at the 1976 Games and a silver medal in the same team event at the 1984 Games. Foil is one of the three weapons of modern Olympic fencing, and a team medal is shared with teammates rather than won alone. The source lead gives no further detail on his club, his national championships or the makeup of the teams, so this entry states only his weapon, his two Olympic team results and his life dates.
