    EK award ceremonies....


    Recommended Posts

    Hi Chris,

    yes, that seems to be true - here my picture of such a ceremony. A General gave EK2 to his soldiers somewhere in france or belgium, and it look like paper-"bags" for the awards..

    Hope, you like it ;)

    regards

    Jürgen

    there are also images where one can see these packets scattered all over the ground during the award event. i've wondered what the protocol was and how they decided to disburse them. was it merely dependent on the day's schedule or how far behind they were on time? or was it dictated by quantity of awardess or even after a particularly important victory?

    ... I'm not sure is it a paper envelope or a case!?

    I think this is the presentation of the EKI, as the soldiers all seem to have the ribbon of the EKII.

    And looks like the award being presented still has its outer carton.

    ... yes - that makes sence!

    ... or it is the folded certificate (on the top of the case).

    Thanks Pete and best regards, cheers.gif
