            A very uncommon postwar photo of a Pour le Mérite holder: Oberstleutnant Heinrich Brinkord (1882 - 1965).

              Also, if you look closely, you'll see that the soldier carrying the pillow is wearing a '57 ribbon bar
              Is that a WWI Reichsflagge?! Holy cow!

                  Hello Sepp ! Yes his ribbon bar is amazing !! A few years ago at the SOS one of his was for sale (with great provenance). If I remember right the asking price was $1,500.00 !! Included many photos & a letter from Speidel stating he was sending it as a gift to a U.S. Army Col. in Virginia. The letter was dated in the 70's. Sure would like to have the funds for stuff like that !!!!!! Tom

                        Hi Sepp.....Hard to tell, but I think he's a RKT. Not a face I have seen before. Fey's ribbon bar....I'll ask my daughter to send it to you via email. I don't have a photo scanner. I'll let you know, Tom

                              Busse is an interesting RKT. He was awarded the Knights Cross and the Oakleaves and also the Honor Roll Clasp, but Never awarded the German Cross in Gold. It happened, but not often. Tom
