    1. Hi JB, You are right about the swords. There is something wrong on it. Form ewhen I have a doubt I don't buy the cross, just my 2 cents Christophe
    2. Nice document Chris particulary the date of the award of the HHO3X. Congrats for your purchase and thanks for sharing it with us Christophe
    3. Hi, Congrats for your puchase. I like the claps on Hessen ribbon. Christophe
    4. Hi Sandro, Did you buy it ? Congrats I think untill we don't have the Reuß rolls, such bar can't be id. Too bad !! Christophe
    5. Hi , I have never heard that one SS Totenkopfring was awarded on September. I remember the following months : April, June, November and December. Birthday of Hitler, Solstice of Suumer, Putsch of 1923 and Equinoxe of Winter. I have seen some ring with others dates like 24 december and 30 june 1934 (night of long knives). Inside the original ring there is no first letter of the first name. Christophe
    6. Hi Dave, Another interresting combo. I will try to find something. First when we see such combo it is difficult without having Schwarzburg rolls. But the other combo is interresting. First there is no centenary medal but we have a long service medal. Each time I see that I think immediatly to a young officer who begun his career as a NCO and who became officer with the time. He made his career and won the KO4. If he were a pure Prussian officer, he should received first the RAO4 and then after the KO4. Our man probably finished his duty just before the WW1. He was then called back during WW1. He won both EK, HHO3X. And about the SE2X ? It is a very high grade. Our man finished the war, if he has survived , probably with grade of Major. And like he was born, or served or what else with Schwarzburg connection, he received this cross. That's my explanation, IMHO Christophe
    7. Very interresting. It's the first time for me I see such entries on Kriegsrangliste. Thanks for showing to us Christophe
    8. Hi, I presume that our man has been recalled to duty after 1935. About age I have no idea. Probably that our man was born between 1890 to 1900. He probably made only the end of the war. There is no free corps insignia or Weimar medal on his ribbon bar.So he's doing nothing with paramilitary unit after WW1 Christophe
    9. on post #240 I have shown a photo of 23 RID in Henin Liétart. I have received a photo which was taken the same day with the 3 SH2b new winners (Carlowitz, Bierey and Fürstenau). Like I haven't seen him first time I have the photo. I can say that Fürstenau now is just behind General von Eberhardt, second from left. Christophe
