      Are you missing one on a tunic or are you looking to ‘complete the set’ ?

      Hello Tony,

                My sincere thanks for looking very much appreciated, I'm trying to replace one I accidentally damaged which belongs to a chap whose medals I have. He was 1 of 3 brothers who served 2 were KIA, the 3rd became a famous footballer and also served in WW2.

      Regards David

      FOR VALOUR,

      Membership in the OMRS is not an unusual request to access our records.  Membership is not expensive and has many rewards.  

      Regards,

      Gordon

      Thank you for your reply here, I am fully aware of the OMRS having been a collector of British war and campaign medals over 50 years. It was not a complaint about the information being only available to members just a response to the previous reply to my request. I'm sure that what you provide to members maybe invaluable but many people today especially have to watch their finances regardless. 

      Regards David

      It is the award document. A vorläufiges Besitzzeugnis is a "preliminary award certificate". For awards like the Iron Cross, this was sometimes the only document the recipient got, as the sheer number of awards and the exigencies of war made issuing formal certificates less common.

      Hello Sir, 

                    Thank you for that information very much appreciated. Regards 

    4. Thank you for the information very much appreciated, the cross has been with me over 40 years, it came with British solders items. The box the cross came in was only checked by me fairly recently and when I removed the bottom board that slip was there thats all I know. Again my thanks for your kind help. 

      Regards
