Thanks Naxos, my intention was to make Rick glad, as a thanks for all the work he did and I hope he will furthermore do Andreas

Sorry, i can´t serve with this award document, but I think five years ago, I was at the Internationales Maritimes Museum Hamburg and surprise surprise, I saw this document and the order in one of the displays. On my demand they told me, that they only have this two things from Paul Wiehr. My hope was, that I could hold the medal bar in my hands but now I known, that the medal bar is in better hands than in this crowded museum. Andreas

@ Rick Unfortunately there is no name or photographer label on the reverse side. @ Paul I´ve never heard from a SS Reserve, but it´s not my time of interest, it´s only a purchase from the flea market
