Greetings, I dont do craigslist.com much. Im a life long German WW2 combat collector and I found an ad for a German WW2 War Merit Cross a few miles across town from me. I called and he told me he had more. This is the grouping I bought from him, I wasnt sure of the Imperial items. Some research and I identified the Royal Order of Hohenzollen Knights Cross with swords. The second was identified for me on WA.com as the Princely Schwarzburg Honor Cross(thanks Noor) A thrilling find for me and much appreciated. It was mentioned to me that thru more experianced members here that one could possibly identify the origional owner. All comments greatly appreciated. Best,Bill Bourque

Greetings, I spend most of my collecting time and funds seeking out items that have never been in a collection. This grouping was obtained from the son of the late Vet. My guess is not to many war souviners were brought back by women. She was a US Army Nurse and was in the ETO for the final 4 months and there after. Includes a near mint Kriegs flag, Norway and US 48 star flag. The IAB is in near mint condition. I live for these buys/suprises. Best, BIll Bourque

Hello, Im still in contact with the Vet.s son and he is searching. He doesnt believe there are any surviving pics as he believes his father got rid of all these items when he came to the States. Best, Bill

Hello, and thank you for the comments. Im in contact with the son and he is trying to find out more information. His father is quite old and doesnt live here locally. The compass is still warm to the touch after being pulled out of the woodwork. Best, Bill
