                What a great picture. I don't have that one in my Winter collection. Would love to have it. Fantastic display of 57 awards.

                Thanks for showing.

                Regards,

                  Super photo, and with full size 57er awards as a bonus!!!!

                  Comments on the medal in the lowest (far right) position on each of the medal bars? Are they all 57er Wehrmacht Service medals?

                  Thank you for posting!!

                  Best,

                      Kapitän zur See Heinrich Hoffmann

                      Interesting that in this image, Hoffmann wore the Destroyer War Badge, however not in the group image.

                      Best,

                            I remember meeting him. He lived in the UK after the war. First post war pic I've seen of him ! Good job Sepp !!!!!!!

                              Yes Adolf lived in Kent up until his death , first post war photo i've seen of him wearing a RK .well done Sepp.

                              The only other RK i know who lived in the UK post war was Harald Riipalu who lived in west Yorkshire before his death in 1961.
