This appeared at the local flea market this morning! The Fallschirmjäger from whom this came is still alive and in home in Rheinland-Pfalz. There were a number of other photos including three taken with Max Schmeling the famous boxer (one of which has a nice dedication on the back). His decorations and cuff title "Kreta" are framed above his bed.

close-up of the reverse with silver markings and of chain. I have marked this more than normally to give the copiers problems.Last edited by PzV; 06-29-2008, 02:02 AM.Comment
