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

Hi, looks like i am going to have to buy one at some stage soon... in the meantime, to start my display.... Can someone tell me the lenght and with of the cloth backing? Thanks Chris

I guess it is possible that the ribbons were damaged and someone remounted them and tossed the old bar?

Would be interesting to see his application document. I am betting he was in more than one commando best Chris

Hi, The auction is over, I managed to buy the EK1 and doc a few weeks ago, then the seller had the two above and an Anhalt Friedrichs Cross on 3 seperate auctions. I got 2 (at about twice the market price) and my underbidder on the two managed to get the third. I am negociating with him if I can get it. If I can get that, then I will contact the seller and get the last two (Hindenburg cross and the ugly Treuedienst cross) the Hindy and Treuedienst are really expensive, and I will only bother with them if i can get the WHOLE group together. Best Chris

Are there certain units more likey to have gotten a Anhalt Friedrich Cross and a Braunschweig cross together? Thanks Chris

Here is part 2..... will I manage to get part ?

Does anyone know what unit these guys could be from? Vaguely in the back of my head I associate that shield on the collar with a bavarian Division?

This will turn out as a great success... or an OK partial group.... It wil break my heart if i cannot get all the items back to reunite the group... but this is the first part.....

If anyone has any Motor Vehicles photos?

Hi, the photo was taken in Karlsruhe... no further info... Does anyone know which awards they could be?

couple more...

a few more....

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Original-Ringe-und-Osen-von-EK-und-andere-/121299706773?pt=Militaria&hash=item1c3e06a395 am sure some interesting repaired crosses will turn up.....

I dont think they are British, the splints on the one on the left are similar to Belgian ones?

A good thought... If he had italikan and french it is very possible he had the bar remounted to exclude "enemy" awards?

Schonungs Komp?

I like.... I guess it is my favourite maker....

That would be great, thanks ;-)

Hi Claudio, perfect, thanks... so this would be WW1 or just after? Does the arm badge with a number mean anything? Best Chris

Hi, Was there a regulation for all pionier officers? Best Chris

Hi Guys, thanks for the efforts. best Chris
