    Hello,

    Here is a picture (postcard size) that i was able to obtain a few days ago, i like it for 2 ways :

    1) The multiple Heer branches that are shown in this posed picture (i can ID from left to right, starting above :

    top row : Wehrmacht (With EK 2 ribbon and what looks like a eastern front) / Civilian

    bottom row : Reichsbahn ? / Kriegsmarine / Luftwaffe

    2) I obtained it offcoarse for the Lw. Uffz. that is pictured, and what do we see on his very uniform :P

    I let you guys ID the Lw. awards (can't be that hard at al :shame: )

    The picture is printed and taken in a atlier at Breslau / so that makes me think that these might be friends or brothers who posed somwhere after 1942 for this picture

    A very nice group shot, Stijn. The gentleman in civilian clothes looks a little like a young Rudolf Hess.

    I've put the photo through the digital washing machine...A little better?

    Btw.. In answer to the question; SegelFlugzeugf?hrerabzeichen

    Hi john,

    Thank you, nice work with that digital rework :beer:

    And you are offcoarse correct, the unknown (at this point) Lw. Uffz. is wearing :

    * The German glider pilots badge

    * The Iron cross 2 nd. class (ribbon through his buttonhole)

    * Wound badge - black

    * The Silver C (embroyed version)

    This picture is from afterwards 1942 + it was taken in Breslau. Besides that i do not have much to go further on it.

    Anyway for me it is a nice on for the collection :love:

    Cordial greetings,
