    1. Cant judge this one. But a TWM with wreath seems to be period and no fantasy piece. Its in Demirs (Mod @ GMIC) book. Screenshot form WAF thread: https://imgur.com/a/qhtST6K
    2. https://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/forum/ken-jasper-international-militaria-forums/imperial-militaria-forum/13429404-gallipoli-star-with-wreath
    3. Recently this got posted at the WAF. Unfortunately, no one replied: From some photos we can see at least three different types, two which are fastened only on the chest and shoulders and the third also fastened on the thighs. 1) Of this type there appears to be a kind of large front hook with large "D" rings, only around the chest 2) Of this type the hook is replaced by two leather straps, chest and shoulders 3) This is the mod. Heinecke, large front buckle and side buckles that go down the legs
    4. Good evening gent I'm looking for Information about the Feldartillerie-Abteilung Reinhardt which was Part of the Freikorps von Lettow-Vorbeck. In Tessins book only a Freiw.Feldartillerie-Rgt. Oslander, with three Abteilungen, as Part of the Division von Lettow des Garde-Kav.Schützen-Korps is mentioned. I guess in was one of these three Abteilungen. And Oslander is a spelling mistake, it's the here mentioned Wilhelm Osiander, commander of FAR 15. https://gmic.co.uk/topic/3189-an-incomplete-tale-of-two-osianders/ The 1914 Rangliste mention an Oberst Reinhardt as Manager of the Artilleriewerkstatt at Spandau. I guess it's him, because there is no other Reinhardt. Kind regrets and thanks
    5. Lindbergh also had an undercut. But the Guy is imo a German NCO. Why should Lindberg wear a German uniform?
    6. He became an award dealer, but not in the Weitze way. https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ritterschlag-auf-raten-a-1dad7a90-0002-0001-0000-000043065533 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/lametta-auf-raten-a-c9a303b4-0002-0001-0000-000043065640 Untranslatable by Browser, but with pictures. Its the report from the first link above from 26.04.1960: https://magazin.spiegel.de/EpubDelivery/spiegel/pdf/43065533
