My Bundeswehr and 57er awards collection

[Nick Hessens]

Thanks for the comment Steve!

Came in together with five OdR magazines.

Oops, six magazines and a booklet from "Hilfswerk Ritterkreuz".

[Nick Hessens]

The most interesting magazine with a small biography on Ernst Jünger and photos of his funeral.

Again great items to have Nick ! it is good these publications are being collected and therefore preserved for later generations to read and in my case look at the pictures
The Ernst Junger edition is special !!
Thanks for showing ...........
Prost ! Steve.

Here's my newest addition, another OdR stickpin variant. This one is marked with Hoffstätter Bonn on the reverse, a wartime maker of pins and badges! The company is still in bunsiness today under the name Intertecnica in the city of Bonn.

My latest acquisition, a 6-rivet Deumer or Deschler Deutsche Kreuz in Gold with the typical Godet wreath. The vaulting is just perfect! The pics don't do it justice though, I wasn't able to capture the dark copper coloured starburst.

I hope you like her!

Beautiful Nick just beautiful, a rare Deutsche Kreuz in Gold to be sure ! In great condition .............a Deschler me thinks, although the quality does infer Deumer.
Prost ! Steve.

Thanks my friends! I'd like to assemble a "Deumer EK set", need a couple more awards to complete my quest (Schickle RK and matching EK2 spange to accompany my recently acquired spange thought to be Deumer).

Regards,
Nick
