Gordon, I've seen the term "Rokiski" used when describing every type of Spanish Air Force insgnia (primarilly wings) - often as a manufacturer of such insignia. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Rokiski literally means 'Spanish Air Force Emblem', and is not the name of a Spanish insignia company. Do I have that right?
Tupper, please forgive me for hijackng your post for my tangental question.
Everything ist ok 🤗

Tupper,
The wings are correct for the Spanish Civil War. Here is a link to a posting of a Legion Condor uniform showing this kind of badge. https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/axis-militaria/spanish-civil-war-condor-legion-pilot-grouping-782523/ There are lots of confusing posts showing pilots wings with crowns worn by the Nationalist side but the crown was not added to these wings until after the end of the Spanish Civil War.
Regards,
Gordon
Thank You very much. I found a miniature of this wing. Thats why i was curious. 🤗

Seems likely, though I can't say for certain. People did change units. But since he's wearing the actual medals, the photo was probably taken to commemorate their awards, so likely taken right around the time of award and thus likely the same unit.
Thank You very much

The only "78" recipient I know of is Georg Brehme, born in Möhrenbach, Amt Gehren, Fürstentum Schwarzburg-Sondershausen. He received the SEK3X as a Leutnant der Landwehr in LIR 78.
The only other 78er was from FAR 78, but an artillery officer would not have a spiked Pickelhaube.
BTW, Gerhard Jordan's SEK3X was awarded as a Hptm.d.L. and commander of the 5. Art.Mun.Kol. des XI.Armeekorps. He was Domänenpächter of the Fürstliche Schwarzburgische Domäne Griesheim.
Wow thats amazing! So You Think this is Leutnant Brehme?
