    Would be awesome to know his name!

    He neither got a Knights Cross nor a DKiG, but a numbered PAB (minimum 75)! That's really rare IMO.

    Maybe it's the man i am searching for: Remember my early silver 100 PAB with the initials "PK" carved into the back.

    Best regards

          More photos of this unique ceremony, taken from a Spiegel TV documentary.

                            Indeed Tom, it looks like there is a suspension loop attached to the Oaks themselves???

                              Is Meyer actually wearing a 57 RK? I thought it was a normal one being worn backwards? All I can see is the date so assumed it was 1813. It may just be my monitor. Wonderful shot in either case.

                              Ed: Ok, I can see it staring closely at the screen. 57er alright. Wow. You know, these shots give some real significance to these 57er awards. That IS Meyer's RK, goodness knows where his original might be, but that one around his neck is the real deal.
