Hi Daniel, i think you found out the second bar already some years ago. I ve the names somewhere at home., but i am on holiday at the moment. The first bar is from somebody from IR 83, groteke or something like this and the second one was from the Standortkommandantur Bad Aroldsen when i recall it correctly. Best regards

Hi Chris, unfortunately there are no pics of a Lt Zirkler mentioned in the album. Most pics are from the 1.st company. Here are 2 showing the owner of all this. As i already wrote i really would appreciate if someone could help with some information about Lt. der Reserve Paul Pense, i ve all his award dates, but could not find him in the rangliste. Best regards Detlev

Good morning, i was just doing some research and found this interesting thread. I was able to pick up a nice group of Sturmbataillon Rohr, including this painting and card from Leutnant der Reserve Paul Pense 1. Kompanie. Can anybody help with some information about his military career? Thank you very much. Best regards Detlev

Hello, i just found this topic and thought i could add some pics of a roup i own. best regards. Detlev

Hi, i can add this one for research. Detlev

Hi Jon, unfortunately, i ve only this picture. This group came together with groups of other family members and a list of names. Just in case. This group is on auction in march. Best regards. Detlev

Hi Chris, so we can stick our heads together and cry in the beer. Prob it s the same guy who own my Kreta and Erdkampf award docs. I was able to buy the beautiful para group through an auction. Only these two docs were missing. Later on they were found and sold on Militaria321, which i missed. I offered twice the price he paid and the same doc from another person, but no way. Off course you are right, it s his decision, but there is not really logical reason, or? So lets wait for the miracle. Best regards Detlev

Hi Dave, thxs for your reply. I didn t know about the bavarian crown. Best regards Detlev

sorry, forgot his picture.

Hello, here are some pictures of a group which was recently sold in an auction. So probably some of you have already seen it. I ve a few questions regarding his awards on the picture. Is he wearing the china medal on his bar? i can t find anything about a service there. Also i read that he got his "Ritter" because of his MMJO which i think is not correct, because he received the order of the crown first. Is there any source where i can find the reason for the awarding of the order of the crown?I do have the explanations for the PLM and the MMJO and I ve his Kriegsstammrolle from Ancestry, but it s very tough to read. I als would appreciate if anybody can provide another picture of him. Best regards Detlev

Hi, quite an interesting man. Here is a picture wearing all his glory. You can see it s exactly the same bar, at this time still with the swords on the AK. Regards Detlev

Vizefeldwebel Kurt Kirmse. IR 177
