After getting the confirmation by Tom B, I thought it would be nice to show Horst Niemack's Swords here. He got the award on June 4th, 1944 as Rittmeister (Kommandeur Aufklärungs-Abteilung 5 / 5.Infanterie-Division)

The swords in the photo are H. Niemack's original wartime ones. Afew years later I heard his home was broken into and all his swords were stolen. I met him several times and he was a true gentleman. Tom

The pictures come from the memorial service held for Karl Dönitz in 1981. The complete set of photos can be seen here: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...&postcount=813

the numbered GAB looks like a fake!

I think it was just "denazified" during the post war.
