Unknown RKT next to an US Army officer and a German veteran (and priest), during the 1950sComment

That’s an amazing photo. The priest??? is a religious so I’m very surprised he was able to even keep let alone wear his TR versions of his awards (or any awards at all for that matter).Comment

This priest may well be, or have been, a Chaplain in which case he could still wear his military awards. I have seen US military chaplains wearing their awards on their stoles when in religious robes.Comment

I recall another image of a different priest who had taken Holy Orders after the war; I am pretty certain there was an image of him wearing his EKI.
EDIT: I must have mixed up my memories! I was probably thinking of Kriegspfarrer Eduard Putz. He was awarded the Gold Party Badge, EKII, KVK I & II w/Swords, and the Ostmedaille. No photos of him wearing his decorations.
Fürthwiki article in German about Eduard Putz
Eduard Karl Johannes Putz (geb. 9. Januar 1907 in Altenschönbach bei Wiesentheid; gest. 22. September 1990 in Erlangen) war von Beruf Pfarrer an der St. Michaelskirche. Putz war seit dem 1. April 1927 Mitglied (Mitgliedsnummer: 60.049) der NSDAP und der SA. Von 1935 bis 1939 war er Pfarrer an der St. Michaelskirche, von 1947 bis 1954 hatte er die Pfarrstelle für das Evangelische Dekanat in Fürth inne. Putz war verheiratet mit Elfriede Lupp (1910 - 1994) und hatte einen Sohn.

Quite true for diocesan priests, but I’m not sure about those in Religious Orders such as the Franciscans or Benedictines etc. it would be interesting to know if the fellow in the first picture was in fact a Religious.Comment
