Bernhard H.Holst Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 Hello Jim.Thank you for showing this to us.BTW: It is my personal choice as favorite German medal. Its simplicity and very underrated importance ( only 1,700 or so awarded ). Belated recognition as all surviving and still living recipients were designated as retired Lieutenants of Landwehr sometime in the 1930's.Bernhard H. Holst
Tunneller Posted August 4, 2015 Author Posted August 4, 2015 Many thanks for your comment Bernhard. I have to say I agree with you .Jim
