Hi guys, I think about buying this one but a medal is missing. Any idea which one? Maybe a coronation or jubilee medal?

Thank you, Tony. I've checked the link and it seems not to be from WWII.

I think our "Bundesländer" prefer to create their own stuff as often as possible.

Hi gents, what do you think about this one? Is it original? WWII? It measures about 6 x 6 cm.

That would be cool to get more information about them. They look very well made, especially compared to the crap they produce nowadays.

This is a really interesting part of our military history! There is a good documentary about it on youtube, but its in german only.
They mention a cool story in it, how the change appeared in some NVA units:
A former Stabsfeldwebel of the NVA, today he is an Oberstabsfeldwebel in the Bundeswehr, was member of an NVA Air Force radar team working in a bunker. On the day, as the NVA stopped to exist, they went into their bunker for their nightshift with two (!) sets of uniforms! The NVA one they were wearing, and a set from the former "Klassenfeind" Bundeswehr. Exactly a 0:00 o'clock the order came: Change uniforms! In the morning they left the bunker as Bundeswehr soldiers.0 -

I think its run by A. Sallach who is the author of the book about current german awards too.

Finally a good photo of the federal flood relief medal 2013. As the photos are with copyright, here is the link only. It seems this time they used a better design compared to the 2002 medal.
This site contains many high quality images of other modern german awards too!0 -

Good morning. Sure that this photo is from 1915? The official name for this type of shield is "Infanterieschutzschild 16".

Definately, even without a name. I got it very cheap, but in Germany the prices aren't that high for US medals.
Your neighbour is a very brave man! Is his Silver Star named?0 -
Just got this one, made 1943. Very nice details and almost mint condition.
