Zimmerman EK2 - Anyone have one?

[George L]

I noticed in Gordon's book, that Zimmerman is listed as a maker of the EK2. Anyone out there own one, or ever see one?? If yes, I'd love to see some pictures!

Thanks,

George L

I don't have one and I've never seen one.

I think Greg has one and I'd bet Antti does also.

Zimmerman EK 2

Hello,


Here is one that was never worn by its recipient (a Luftwaffe Glider pilot who earned it in Russia ) and still with its original award packet and full size ribbon.


Cordial greetings,

That's a Fritz Zimmermann. I think he was asking about C.F. Zimmermann. (I have a "Fritz" also. )

I meant a '20' by CF

Should've been more specific. Anyone seen a '20' marked EK2?

Oh no! But, what are those 'blobs' between the ridges! A broken die or excess metal?
