Gordon Williamson Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 And it appears that during WW2 he served in a Werkluftschutz unit. Note the mini PLM lapel badge ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Unfortunately behind glass in a dimly lit room so hard to photograph. Again the lapel miniature of the PLM in wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Unfortunately behind glass in a dimly lit room so hard to photograph. Again the lapel miniature of the PLM in wear.Gordon, thanks for posting that photo. The mini isn't centred on the ribbon, but appears to be suspended from the ribbon, similar to the one shown in the 1930's era Godet catalogue! The type usually seen has the cross -on- the ribbon, not suspended from. Neat to see photo documentation for the catalogue version!Les Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I agree!! That is one heck of a grouping! I bet that there was no other LS member that was authorized to wear that award! What was his rank in the WerkLuftschutz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
