Not a fan, the signatures look suspect. Hopefully others will comment.

Sorry, i don't like either.
Fest.Inf.Btl. 655 was deployed on the west coast of Norway at the time with the 3 Kp. on the island of Florøy. Obviously a Kp. Chef was far too low an authority to award a KVK, this would have come from division or korps level and will have used a proper KVK award document.
A member of AGP Lappland will have qualified for the Lappland shield if they had fulfilled the required 6 months minimum service time within the award area and this style of doc is certainly correct for the unit, however, it's incorrectly filled out with no stamp. Here's an example of a genuine one for comparison (not in my collection), again Kp. chef is to low an authority for the awarding.
I would guess that these were created from information seen in a WP or SBCollecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.Comment

The vast majority of awards were made July/ August 45, fewer during september /October and only a handful after that. Any pre-8 may 45 awards are backdated from July onwardsOriginally posted by Gerdan View PostCollecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.Comment
