I have only ever had pin stamped ones before... how comman/Uncomman is this one? It comes from a Group that may unfortunately stay split... an award at the end of the war to a Machine Gun NCO

... methinks it has to do with Officers school..... ;-)

He always does ...

95th infantry Regiment

Hi, Any slight chance of guessing a unit on this guy? Thanks Chris

and again...

A few more....

Indeed... it looks flat, maybe a strange pin

more

A few more....

haha... god will punish you for not trusting the post office!!!! No easter eggs for you!!

I dont know... but I want in on the game.... my guess (which is obviously going to turn out wrong) is something to do with "Militia" ?

wow... that is nice.... Is there a name with it?

Looking interesting, can you show the rest?

I can only say... RickL would have been preeeeeety busy....

Imagine finding the cupboard where these guys left their tunics after one beer too many....

... something fantastic and interesting...... :-)

It was quite a bit of luck. First off, a Nice citation, then a regimental history with a clear account. best Chris

Hi, they were in Kurland for most of 1916... no Verdun at the time...

Here you go.... another fool and his mones soon to be parted.... http://www.ebay.de/itm/Prasentationsetui-Etui-Eisernes-Kreuz-iron-cross-Orden-Ehrenzeichen-Abzeichen-ek-/331139737741?pt=Militaria&hash=item4d1977688d

One of my finds of the year ... In September 1916 during the fighting on the Somme Max Hartinger of the 21st Bavarian Infantry Regiment played an important part in disrupting two British attacks near Ginchy. For his part in the action he was awarded an Iron Cross 2nd Class. The award was later upgraded to a Bavarian Gold Bravery Medal, just one of 998 awarded during the war HERE I hope the year gets even better ;-)

Hi, then try this ;-) http://www.kaiserscross.com/40047/503901.html :-)

I also see "something" on the 3rd ribbon... but it does not look like pins have been through... I think a tough call, but I would go for it if the price were right....

Muchos grazias!

Very interesting! And all in much better condition than i would have thought!
