Douglas Jr. Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Hi folks,A friend of mine ask for help to identify the decoarations and promotions listed in this Milit?rpass.I could identify the Milit?rverdienst 3. Klasse mit Schwertern und Krone and the Eiserne Kreuz II Klasse. But what about the others? Service Medals? Wound Badge?In addition, any help with the promotions would be nice!Thanks,Douglas.
