I want to add that my intenssion was to metion the name of Rick only on the panel like this: "In memorial of Rick Lundstorm" because I don't consider this piece as mine. It is still Rick's document. But the museum told me that the mane of the lender from contract will be listed too. Kind regards Alex

Today I want to tell yo a story about Rick. Many years ago Rick posted the attached document on GMIC. I sent him a message when I saw it and ask him, if he could imagine to leave this document. He answered me that he want to keep ths document but when he pass away I will get it. You can imagine that I don't gave anything on this statement. Weeks after Rick past away (RIP), I got a messae from a member of this forum. He told me that he found my name together with this document notice that it should be hand over to me. I was shocked because I never expect this, especily because we shared only a coupe of messages and dont know each other good. Idon't had a good feelig to take this document under this circumstances but this was the will of Rick. I got a very toaching letter from his mother and decided to display this document on a public museum, where Rick name should ne mentioned forever. It tooks a lot of time but the document is now displayed on the Aeronauticum meseum at Nordholz. When one of you guys ever stand in front of this document don't forget to think about Rick. Sorry for the bad picture but this is the one I getfrom th museum. When someone of you visit the museum could make a better one and post here. Thanks Alex

Another aquisition from the last days is this text book square punch see pilot badge. It is the silver gilded version. Although the square stemp is missing it is a nice piece of this maker without any modifications as seen on many of this pieces. This one cames from the estate of Flugzeugmatrose Riecker (II. SFA), awarded on 25.03.1916 Regards Alex
