    Sadly, it is not.

    This document is wrong on several points.

        I'm not going to point out all of the flaws. For starters though, the signature and stamp are wrong.

            I'm always looking for pictures of Degrelle's cross. This image comes from a video interview made in 1991.

            By the way... does anybody knows the current whereabouts of this RK? Still on his family?

                More captions, this time from a French documentary about WW2 and Degrelle. We can appreciate not only his RK, but also the wound badge in gold and the CCC.

                          Hi Tom, I was trying to find out myself that mystery signature too. No luck yet, but I'll let you know.

                              Another unfortunate example.
