Hello dutchcollector,

That is a very nice looking Krim Shield Document. Has the proper 'Army Supreme Command 11' eagle ink stamp. The facsimile Manstein signature looks good, as does the Army Headquarters and date stamps. Very unusual first name for the recipient. Is that a Dutch name? Congratulations!
Best regards! Tom Yanacek

Hi Guy's,
That award doc is 100% correct.I only collect docs to the inf.rgt.16 and they are all that exact type and all awarded on the same date(that's from the dozen or so that I have seen anyway!).
There are three that I know off for sale at the moment on the net at the usual sites.
Thanks
Glenn.
