Marcin L Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Why is he waring EK II and EK I at the same time? Was it correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) What a MESS his awards are! Veterans stuff... Freikorps banned after institution of the Hindenburg Cross... and what can only be self-awarded Austro-Hungarian Red Cross awards. All that and a glass eye too! Note that on El Chepo's last officially mounted medal bar, the outside lower hilt is broken off the X on his KO4X.
