Very nice picture! The DKiG looks like a postwar product from Souval IMO.

Yes, the DK does look to be Souval, the vet connection being one of the reasons why they are collectible. At least a few of them were bought as replacements for those lost during and at the end of the war. Great shots as usual Sepp.

An interesting non-standard DKiG in cloth. No date box and non metal wreath. Some would say a post war production.

Some fantastic photos as always Sepp!!

Unusual that there is a 1939 EK1 with his medals. Bassenge was awarded the 1914 EK1.

Kind regards
