I guess its an age old problem.... another problem (My fault due to chaos) due to the many documents I have I have until now always had the EKs seperate with tags... but every now and then a tag an an award get seperated... My idea for the moment, that allows you to keep them in a binder with the documents, is to enlarge a photo of the recipient.... Poke holes through, mount the cross, glue on a backing.... Put it in the binder.... I just need to add some name tags.. Here are a few... Lt d.res Chambeau

3 Guys went over EUR160 on this? I had always thought they were abour EUR100 ? http://www.ebay.de/itm/MB-Orden-Hanseatenkreuz-Luebeck-Luebecker-Hamseatenkreuz-/201050093925?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=CvF8XALJXCKIrYR4IG9S2BV%252B8JU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Yup... could huddle up in front of the fire with that eh ? ;-)

Hi Claudio, thanks a million!! I did not know they used St Etienne MGS!

I thought a thread with clear shoulder strap shots would be a good thing... Here is a K

Would love to get one of these!!! MW 312 on the cover!!!

I wonder if he had an iron Cross as well?

Does anyone know if a Man named Voight of the 19th Bavarian Reserve Infantry Regiment recieved a gold or silver bravery medal? Thanks+ Chris

Hi Trevor, do you include the 1813 - 1870 in that for volume II ?

Hi R.H. I wish you lots of luck researching this. My personal experiance says, with this little information it may be a very long journey that never reaches its destination... but thats part of the fun of collecting.... Best Chris

That is the most interesting set of Photos I have seen in a long time! Best Chris

Hi, Do you think it is an officer?

I think he has it covered up to but not including WW1 documents and the selection of examples of WW1 crosses is appetite wetting, but nowhere near complete... examples up to and including 1870 is nailed... as is history and text for 1914. I can really recommend this.

Similar to the Cuban Cammo that used to float around in South Africa in the 1980s.....

Just a Note.... 2 Articles by Henk Loots are up on kaiserscross.... for years they have been "The" articles about the award... http://www.kaiserscross.com/40184/465722.html

This one has an old pen info "in memory of the Unteroffizier shooting competition, 6th Company, Infanterie Regiment Nr 104"

Possibly a captured piece... "In memory of the Unteroffizier shooting competition, 6th Company... of what looks to be Infanterie Regiment nr. 104"

2143 Corporal Ernest Albert Corey of Cooma, NSW, enlisted on 13 January 1916 into the 55th Battalion and served as a stretcher bearer. Mr Corey was the only soldier in the British Commonwealth to be awarded the Military Medal four times.

Can anyone narrow down slightly what active infantry Regiments would usually have gotten this combination (if that is at all possible...) Thanks Chris

Unfortunately Groups are often worth more when split :-( Sad fact.....

Nice Rettungsaktion Jock!!

Thanks Its impossible to see the straps and there is nothing on the back, but the division ist just what I need. Any idea what was on the badge?

Hi Chip, Thanks, I am going to leave a bit of room anyway around it, so any difference in variation will be already included. Thanks Chris
