      Dankwald actually shows up if you google him. There can't be two in Eisenach.

      But with the black/white colour shift, sometimes it appears reddish:

      So this is an example of a regimental "bravery diploma" like Adolf got?

      Any comments????

      By the way, I bought mine from an ebay seller called "Ba-re" in Berlin. Last time I shall do that.

      It glows and it was done on a photo quality scanner and pasted on to an older cardboard backing. I suspect the backing originally had another less exciting picture on it. I might never have known except when it arrived the center of the picture underneath was loose.

      I just bought this one on ebay last month, but I think it is a repro.

      Hold on-what is the round silver medal squashed between the Leopold Commemorative and the Wedding medal?? The silver Crown Prince Rupprecht medal??

      ..... and the artillery one.

      penultimate one-very bright for a combat badge. I reckon it was a veteran's piece.

      Encore Encore!! Why did pvt. Singh receive no clasps on his Mutiny medal?

      Great find. Ambrose has a section of his book where he notes that soldiers' families were usually told that they 'died instantly" and "did not suffer". The sniper is unusual. Does the First Division have a website?

      whoops size too big for the backs. I shall do a separate thread (pardon the pun).

      I got some in a street market earlier in June. They have been attacked by moths a bit though. What are they anyway, Italian, Pakistani- made souviners or only for mess dress uniforms?
    22. Ulsterman
      Great!! I love this sort of research. History is great.

      Ta Glenn: Any idea on how much these sell for? Can you flesh out any unit histories ? Thanks,

      The men who wore them. Austrian POWs in Russia in 1916.
