Re: Großdeutschland Wehrpass - Ehrenblattspange Holder
Another superb piece of History Kevin , i'm sure on eof our Latvian members will be able to get you a a photo of his grave at Saldus. Any ideas on the combat action for the award of the Ehrenblattspange ?
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

Unfortunately not as yetbut there is plenty of time to try and figure it out although it will probably be difficult to tie it down to one particular day, i.e. was it awarded for the day he died or for the day before or the week before etc.
