Chris Boonzaier Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 HI, Here is a nice shot of a military official with an EK2...
Paul R Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Interesting pip. What is the device on the shoulder board?
Claudio Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 It's a functionary military officer... Militärbeamter. C
Paul R Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 I imagine that this was a great EK citation. Are beamter EKs (Combatant) common?
kasle Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 I thnik in ww1 it depended on the fact, whether he served in warzone (combatant ribbon) or not (noncombatant ribbon).

Exactly, He could have been 2KM outside of the german border pushing paper and he would have got this, and 3KM away, just inside the border, the guy answering the mail would have gotten a white ribbon or war service medal.
kasle Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Just Hindenburg cross would be without swords in both cases, I suppose.
