    Help with award entry

    Can anyone help me identify the attached award entries, maybe I'm just missreading them but I just can't work out what they are.

    Many thanks

        The first scan is:

        Annerkennung im Luftverordnungsblatt 49/42

        Basically his name was listed in the Luftwaffe Official Gazette....similar to the Ehrenblatt/Ehrenlist and 1944 became the Ehrenblattspange.

        This person was a memebr of Jagd Geschwader 27 according to the Soldbuch?

          Hi stdub/Ian


          Thanks for that, I thought the first was probably the Westwall medal but wasn't sure as I couldn't make it out properly (pilots badge I knew and wasn't supposed to be in the picture)
          As to the Annerkennung im Luftverordnungsblatt 49/42 - I didn't realise this and the Ehrenblattspange were one and the same (so to speak) - the first version like the British MID's before the Oakleaf was awarded.
          Yes its from a JG27 Soldbuch but I'm going to have to do a little research to find if this was the unit he was with when he won his awards.

          Regards
