Notice the "Pi. Zug II./Fsch. Jg. Rgt. 1" entry. Interesting that that is listed as his unit until 1.8.40.

Awards. Nice that it has the jump license number captured. Notice the EK I & II for Eben Emael.

Documents for the EK I & II

[Eric Queen]

I believe he had an inner ear problem which would eventually take him off jump status

[Eric Queen]

I believe he was awarded the retired fliers badge which paratroopers were also illegible to be awarded.

From his photo album. With friend Rudolf Stützinger which was also a member of Trupp 5. Stützinger was KIA the first day on Kreta.
