      Cool pic, thanks for sharing. I have circled what looks like a schinkel form cross. If it is, I think its pretty interesting to have it mixed in with the others.

        I think the shipping/packing carton is the most interesting thing in the picture...anybody have or seen one of these?

              Now I remember where I have seen this before.

              Wasn't it was part of a 'Black' Propaganda campaign of the British in NA?

              That would explain the mix up with the ICs and the odd box?

                      EK2s in Russia

                      I believe that the display of EK2s in Russia is in St. Petersburg, AKA Leningrad. From what I understand, after the German army was encircled, Hitler decided to give every soldier an EK2 to boost morale. So, rather than getting food and supplies, the soldiers got medals! As far as I know, a large stash was found after the surrender and there they are.

                      BTW, the picture is off the internet and sure enough, on the other side is the photo of the grave crosses.
