Hi Steve!!
Great group of RKT pieces, I think maybe the mini medalbar is my favourite, though the stickpin is great too, and looks to be the earliest and most worn!!
It may be possible to find a match to an RKT, but I think it will be a very difficult task, without DK, Honor Roll Clasp, numbered badges, and no foreign awards, theres nothing that jumps out at you as being unique to one vet unfortunately?
Theres no sign that he served again in the Bundeswehr, so maybe he didn't, but probably was active at vets re-unions and ODR meetings.
Still, a fine group of pieces, I hope one day a name can be found, but even without, they make a very nice set!!!
Good catch Steve!!!!!!!!!!

An ID will be next to impossible as there were hundreds of RKT's that would have had this combo of awards. TomOriginally posted by Nigel N View PostHi Steve!!

not necessarily, of the 2000 portraits I looked at, the dozen or so that were promising in black and white turned out to have different grades of the WB and/or CCCOriginally posted by Tom B View PostComment

Thanks for the comments Gentlemen, appreciated ! Great images Andrew, thanks for taking the time to post A big thanks to member Brig, for his dogged determination to try and find my fellow ! I really would not know where to begin ! please keep up the good work...I would love to put a name to this set, Andrew, which area of Germany did they come from ? as Brig's dozen or so hopefuls can be checked against OdR records with regards region/City of origin.
Prost ! Steve.Comment

Unfortunately the dozen or so differed in grades of WB and/or CCC so wouldn't pan out
But, yes, I really want to know the ID and will keep looking!Comment
