    you're citations for LW ground techs - black men, might be for a single KvK the basic or good commendation medals for excellent work, NO combat awards given in this very case.....

    I still have a few more to get to CD including one I think you already seen before-that showed a LW aircrew with their new awards. I think in all, I might have 5-6 more to get to CD as far aw award pics go. I have about 50 total since moving back to CC last year. Most of these are Koed Tanks pics and such. Ive been waiting for a dealer from San Antonio to come back to the CC gun show--as he has a box full of original pics that I MIGHT be able to score a great deal from. I didnt get to see what they were last time since I was ruched but--if any are good? meaning stuff I like to get, then il be buying more than a few from him. Rick has ticked me off and im starting to shy away from his stuff.

    Anyway, the S.A> dealer has a large box full of original images and next time I see him at a CC show--im going straight to his table before i buy anything else. Ive got trading material too and will use that first before cash. I HOPE--to have a major score in the future here ;-)) If so? the hell with Rick.

    Thanks E and im hoping to sometime in January. Just depends on time and whether im motivated or not? The time thing is due to a possible Court date I might have dealing with a jerk who owes me over $2,000 but refuses to repay. I dont want that but apparently he does.

    Still awaiting the arrivals of a few move pics to come in so I can get another batch of originals on photo CD. Also, im waiting for a CD I sent to a friend to arrive at her home so she can get them to photo bucket for me and I can start posting some of my Imperial and WWII Cloth rank insignia. HOPEFULLY they will be online sometime next week????? The original pics HOPEFULLY will be online in about 2 or so weeks.

    :thumb:Very nice and, nice grouping too. I only have a few KM related award pics--some I cannot find for the life of me and show 4 men (also were friends of mine) from U 181 receiving their DKiGs from Kapitan zur See and RKT Wilhelm Dommes while at their base in Singapore around Feb or so of 1945. The only KM award pic I have readily available is my Klaus Feldt RKT award Ceremony HH PK pix I have. Shows GAdm Erich Raeder awarding the RK and placing is about Feldts neck. This pix is in the PK pics thread.
