Looks right to me, and would fit with the Dewoitine 520 shown in one of the earlier pics. Excellent grouping, rare in such complete state. Congrats on this great find Now, if a dromedary is a safe mode of transportation, what?s the lifeboat for .................. Cheers, Sandro GdC26

Hello, I am looking for information on RK and DKiG holder Reinhard Aigen. Mr Aigen attained the rank of Oberfeldwebel, and was a Bordmechaniker in 7./KG 4 "General Wever". Date of birth: 20 May 1913, died on the Eastern front on 19 September 1943. Mr. Aigen received the Rk posthumusly, on 9 June 1944, along with around 8 other recipients. Any information on Mr. Reinhard Aigen is much appreciated. Thank you and regards, Sandro Rigutto GdC26 The Neherlands

I concur with Mr. Rosenberg?s reading of the document. Perhaps this chart is of some use in further decyphering the document? Regards, Sandro GdC26

I agree with luftyguy that this appears to be a a leather flight combi for flight over water, cut down to a jacket. No telling from the pics if the modification is wartime or post war (Germany was in less then great shape after May '45, and quite a few military items were altered for civillian use). The suits themselves are not too common, but there are not that many collectors looking for them, either. I think RelicHunter (Gerard Stelzelberger) offered a minty example recently for (if memory serves) around US$ 2000. In light of prices paid for similar items on for example German e-bay, I believe that to be at the high end of the scale. Hope of use, Sandro GdC26

Hi Chris, Many thanks for the informtion. I will be very interested in (copies of) the pics and of any other documents pertaining to Mr. Petzold. Regards, Sandro
