    1. That makes one busy reservist... This is more medals than I have seen on even active duty members! Perhaps a reserve SEAL or SPEC OPs guy?
    2. Reserve Enlisted(perhaps got a commission later). I DONT think that this set is possible. We are talking about 50 years of service here(Korea 50-3 and the earliest possible awarding for the GWOTE medal is 2003). There would be two stars on the National Defense. Also, where is the Korean Campaign medal? If someone had the UN medal for it, would they not also have the campaign medal?
    3. I just got this nice single RLM board in the mail today. It utilizes the second pattern of cypher and a red waffenfarbe. It is the slide in type of board and seems to have been cut off an uniform! The RLM underwent several insignia configuration/waffenfarbe changes throughout it's short history. I would be curious to see any other RLM related insignia out there!
    4. How long did it take you to complete the sub? I look forward to seeing your future models!
    5. That is a super model!! What did you make it out of? I am amazed!
    6. Great set of documents, Gordon. That last one from his service with the British is the best piece, IMHO. I wonder what he did exactly, if his closest civilian skill was that of a Locksmith?
    7. And finally, another Admin Official. Can someone read the writing here?
    8. here are some new ones... Notice that these first two are from the same man. The group photo was when he was with the regular Luftwaffe in 1939. I am guessing that he had the red waffenfarbe, judging by the trade badge. As can be seen, he later became an official. Notice that he won the 1939 EK2 and EK1, most likely before becoming an official.
    9. That is an awesome photo. I do not think that his name is that which is stamped on the card. I think that the stamp relates to the studio. This is my opinion... perhaps I am wrong? Here are a couple of new additions for me! A couple post cards from the same man, an Engineering Official for the war duration(a.Kr).
    10. Thanks Eddie! It must be some sort of Agriculteral award.
    11. Wow!! That is a piece of history I never knew! Thanks for that. I would have never guessed.
    12. It is a beautiful order. The Communists did make pretty medals! What was it awarded for?
    13. Very nice. The German and Russian influence is quite heavy!
