Chris Boonzaier Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 A missing leg, a missing hand, a missing finger... probably a missing eye... and a single EK (so far) to show for it....I am sure a number were awarded the EK later, especially the invalides...
Chris Boonzaier Posted April 14, 2007 Author Posted April 14, 2007 One of the things I like about the phot is it seems to confirm that the Germans, like the British, used bandsmen as standard-bearers.
Mike K Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Hi Chris,Interesting and sobering pic. I assume earlier war?Does the ?bandsman standing on the left have something cross-shaped on his chest hiding in the shadows?RegardsMike
Chris Boonzaier Posted May 27, 2007 Author Posted May 27, 2007 Looks like an EK1 above a wound badge.Hi,do you mean the guy on the left? It looks like it on the scan, but that cannot be seen on the photo.BestChris
