    1. Looks like a close match for unk maker #9, variant 1.26.3 from Frank H's book, pages 280-287. I should measure 52.9mm by 43mm and weigh approx. 13.2 grams. Hope this helps. Don
    2. Nice collection Greg. Don
    3. If he recieved it (the FAM) as a gefreiter in bronze would it get upgraded to silver when he made NCO? Sorry for the dumb question, just a thought. Don
    4. Nice additions Jan. Don
    5. #2,3,&4 are fakes. The last one posted I'm not sure about. Can we please see the front. Bob, you've been holding out. I have a place in the motorpool for that last badge you posted. Don
    6. Nice flatback PAB. Don
    7. Nice collection. I'm currently going through an Imperial EK phase myself. Don
    8. Here it is: http://www.history-books.com/de/shop/shop.cgi Don
    9. I'll post it when I get home. Right now I'm looking to arrange payment, hopefully via IBAN so I don't have to send cash in an envelope. Don
    10. What a coincidence that after looking for a particular regimental history (IR 180) for two years I found it last night on a site that Detlev gave me at the MAX two uears ago. I have checked that site every week for the last two years to no avail but it was there last night and is currently on hold for me. MTF Don
    11. Can you provide a larger pic of just his combat badges please? thanks Don
    12. Bob is correct. Additionally, there is one made by RRS. Don
    13. Thanks David. I'll keep looking for it. I'm sure it will show up one day. Don
    14. Thanks David. Don
    15. Of course I am. Don
    16. Chris, I believe the family wrote that on there at a latter date. Don and no, you don't sound like an ass.
    17. Inside is his KO issue EK1 in mint condition. He must have sent it straight home. Any info you have relating to him, or his unit would be greatly appreiciated. thanks Don
    18. The name is Wilhelm Linck.
    19. Very interesting. Dave, I have an EK1 awarded to a Vizefeldwebel on 28/8/1917 from the 2d Company, 180th Infantry RGT. I have looked everywhere for the regimental history but no luck so far. Don
    20. Nice Marc. Now I have something else on the list to find. Don
    21. Marc, nice finds. Imperial is a slippery slope. Don
    22. Sorry Jim but everything sleeps in the safe. I wish I could have a nice display cabinet but I have an innate distrust of humans. Don
    23. Sal, I believe they had a port just east of Venice which was ceded to Italy after the war. I forget the name of the place (Trieste perhaps)???? Don
