    1. The cross looks ok to me, but the horizontal pin is certainly unusual (but not unheard of on other TR badges). I'd wait for Jacques to comment to feel comfortable with it.
    2. Nice display Bob. Is that a short-wave radio?
    3. I think a close-up of the Prague bar would help. Looks like a big 'bump" in the upper left corner...
    4. Wunderbar!
    5. Francois, have you ever seen a "Type 1" / Droop Tail example in a period photograph? The one you posted above is only the second I've ever seen. I snapped the photo below from the 2009 SOS, it belonged to Ed Anderson. Does anyone else own a LW shooting lanyard with a Droop-Tail eagle?
    6. You might try posting in the "Wanted" section as well... http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showforum=36
    7. Wow - nice find Jacques. Is this your first NOK cross?
    8. JTW, I agree with what you are saying overall, but my eye sees two distinctly different eagles in post #2.
    9. I've seen this buckle described as early DLV, NSFK, and NSKK. Can someone help me sort this one out? Thanks!!
    10. Welcome back Jacques! Great photos as always...
    11. What's the website where you found the repros above please?
    12. Nice finds! I assume the FLL clasps are umarked; how about the Funk & Brüninghaus and Juncker clasps? If so, can you please show photos of the marks? :cheers:
    13. Nice! :cheers:
    14. Wow - really well done. Thanks for sharing the photos.
    15. Very nice photos - thanks for sharing them!
    16. Another nice one. FLL has a very bold eagle design with nice details.
    17. I've not seen an FLL RO/AG before - this one is stunning! :cheers:
    18. I was going to ask if one could earn more than one Hansa cross, but the above ribbon bar answered it for me. :cheers:
    19. Wow -- what a beautiful trio! Forgive me for asking Posper, but what the heck is your avitar about? It's downright creepy... :ninja:
    20. Juncker, not Junker. Sorry, it's a pet peve of mine... :cheers:
    21. Thank you Naxos for checking the website for me - that's a start!
    22. Anyone out there have information on a Luftwaffe NCO named Kurt Speck? He was one of a hundred or so Legion Condor members to earn the Spanish Medalla Militar(documented), and Spanish Cross in Gold (assumed). I believe he may have also earned the Austrian Annexation Medal. However, he's not on any Knight's Cross or German Cross list that I could find. My German language skills are not proficient enough to effectively use the German War Graves Commission website (http://www.volksbund.de/graebersuche/content_suche.asp) If anyone has info on Kurt Speck, or has the time and ability to search the above site for his possible grave site and service info, I'd be much abliged. Many thanks!
    23. Superb collection Bob - thanks for sharing it!
    24. Pretty sure it's zinc.
