I have in my collection Peiper's original Knight's Cross award document incased in a large leather covered casing with two huge SS runes on the front, and signed by Himmler.
A little late, but I'm always willing to oblige another Forum member...

All a matter of taste, I guess...but somehow I found this rather sad.
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Thanks! I'm excited about finding this forum. I'm not much of a computer geek, so I am unaware as to how to post photos. I guess I need a tutorial. Can anyone help? I will be glad to do so.
Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam!
