My dear friends,

I would like your opinion on this unusual award, do you believe them to be authentic and also if any of you have ever seen something similar before.

Thank You.

Cheers,

Ibrahim.

wow, it's the first time to me to see it..

Ibrahim, could you tell me about the German in Indonesia on WW2??

Because the Indonesia proclamation text is typed using German typewriter and there are some German soldier's graves on West Java..

Could be good, but I'd be very wary of anything like this without documented evidence that they existed pre-May 1945
