      DRK/Deutsche Volkspflege Steckkreuz 2nd model (awarded between 1937-939). After that period replaced by the third and final model (without the red cross on the eagle).

              Yes it´s the War merit cross but he´s wearing something on his right pocket but it´s too unsharp to see what he´s wearing there.

                      He does seem to be wearing something on that pocket but if the other medal on his left pocket is the Spanish Cross Of War then I would edge more towards it being a Spanish Cross.

                        Yes the two usually go together (that is the German Spanish Cross and the Spanish Star (it is not really a cross). So clearly a veteran of the Spanish civil war which is not too unusual for Luft personell.
