Reccomendation letter for Iron Crosses

[Michele Zezio]

Hi guys,
I'm very interesting in documents of first or second class Iron Crosses, and I've got some. Now I'm looking for a reccommendation letter (in german "Begruendung zur Verleihung des EK ") but it's difficult to find one of them.
So I'd like ask you a couple of question:
1. If someone have this letter in his collection, can post here a pic of it (I've seen the letter only on Wehrmacht-Awards website but I'd like to see other examples)?
2. Is it right that,often, the information about the action of the IC recipient was written on the back of the document of first or second class Iron Cross?
3. Could anyone suggest me where I can buy this document?

Thank you in advance
Michele

Hi Michele, welcome to the forum.

I think these are very hard to find also. In answer to question #2, it is very rare (not very often) that the Begrundung was written on the back. I have seen pictures of 1 or 2 of them. I don't have any, so I can't post a picture.
To find one, I can only say good luck!
