Stijn David Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Hello, And the awards a bit more closer - upCordial greetings,
seeheld Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I think this is not possible, because this combination is not very rar.Many brave junior officers reveived the same orders...
Paul C Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 The stand Saxon trio is very common and nop way to ID.
Stijn David Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Hello, Thank you for posting the medal bar and the info => very nice.Cordial greetings,
Guest Rick Research Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 If his shoulder board rank and unit was clear, that would at least narrow down the suspects.Without a nice autographged dedication on back.... sigh.
Claudius Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Here's another example I've seen... would anyone like to comment on the EKII turned to the back side? He likes the look of the reverse's leaves? As a loyal saxon first, didn't want to show off the prussian king's "W"? He's lazy and didn't notice when he mounted them?Just wondering.
Ulsterman Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Many period mistakes-still though, I have noticed a larger percentage of the reversed EKs Seem to have belonged to non-Prussians.
