    1. Ribbons: https://www.medals.pl/de/de3.htm Shoulder boards and so on: https://www.germandaggers.com/Gallery/CT0W.php
    2. In Germany stuff like Graf or Prinz and vom or von became part of the last name in 1919. While in Austria for example, these parts of the name were completely forbidden.
    3. As a European, first to my mind came the General Data Protection Regulation.
    4. Why they build Dacia and not only Bentley? High quality fakes like Blass are so-called manufacture when its comes to the making. While you can pump out a few hundred FEKs per hour with a die stamp and a press.
    5. https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/orders-decorations-third-reich/fake-1914-1918-ehrenkreuz-hindenburg-cross-422255/ Yes, I know, a collector would spot this easily. But it exists.
    6. Hello gents Anybody have the exact size of the left one? Maybe out of some official regulations? The question came up because the Landesjägerkorps / Freikorps Märker seem to have used a "blue award ribbon" for the 5. Abteilung at the sleeve. So, how do you differentiate them in pictures? While most award ribbons have ~30-35mm, the exact size of the early sleeve ranks could be valuable to solving this question. Kind regrets and thanks.
    7. Long time ago, but: https://www.google.de/books/edition/Organisation_Heinz_O_H/eTtDAAAAIAAJ?hl=de&gbpv=0 Organisation Heinz (O.H.) das Schicksal der Kameraden Schlageters Von Friedrich Glombowski · 1934 See page 288 of the pdf. Normal page numbering: 241
    8. Many thanks to both of you. The Deutsch Wette near Neisse was mentioned in some text about the S.S.O.S. I guess its the place where he lived when he found the Gruppe Nord of the Selbstschutz Oberschlesien in May 1921. He was also the commander of the Gruppe Nord.
    9. Hello Gents, I'm looking for more information on Oberstleutnant Grützner from Deutsch Wette near Neisse. He found the Gruppe Nord of the Selbstschutz Oberschlesien in May 1921. I'm Interested in his WW1, especially the regiment in which he served at the end of the war. I hope to find a pre S.S.O.S. Freikorps that was built up out of this WW1 regiment. Kind regrets and thanks
    10. Do you own this picture? Is anything written on the back? I try to determine this Freikorps, but its a bit tricky. Some might say its Battalion Keith but IMO its not. Battalion Keith has some smaller cross onto a fabric disc as insignia. Also, Battalion Keith did not wear this oak leaves collar tab.
    11. Its not even a joke: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frédéric_Prinz_von_Anhalt#Early_life
    12. Indeed the military version, so I guess: He fought some Pimp wars in the 80s or before.
    13. You are talking about this bar? Are the awards itself genuine and only the bar is a modern fake? Or all fake?
