2018 was extremely succesfull year for me - the most succesfull in my collecting practice. Since one of my primary collecting areas is 1.Gebirgsjaeger division I was very lucky to get a full group with all documents and 2(!) Soldbuch on DKiG and close combat clasp in silver winner from Gebirgsjaeger regiment 98- Wilhelm Wineberger.

There is always a way to make a full DKiG group more full and perfect - to find a DKiG which belonged to the soldier!
After I purchased this group I just decided to google the name - and I was suprised to find an old thread here on WAF with his DKiG! I contacted the owner and he was kind to sell it to me. Thanks to him again!
If we look at Wineberger's war time photo we can see that his DKiG was cracked at war time (maybe when he was wounded? - judging by place where the pin was repaired I find this theory more or less realistic)
So here what else I have:
Thanks for attention!
