Amazing 1957s grouping - Is he known?

Hello everybody,

this grouping really amazes me. Is he known at all? Some miniatures look period time to me!

Thanks!

I've no idea who it is Klaus but it's a comprehensive group of miniatures and the photos span a lot of years.

The postcards are addressed to Adolf Krogmann at a field post address from what I can see, do you think that is the person whose grouping it is or a relative perhaps?

I note the KVK mit Schwerten is represented twice on the ribbon bar, once with a miniature of the KVK, the other time just with swords. I'm guessing that would mean a first and second class award?

Thanks Adrian. I noticed that as well and agree it must be for 1st and 2n Class.
The grouping was brought into a little local antique store by a family member but unfortunately they did not talk about if this was Adolf Krogmann or not. I would say it could be him but there is no final proof. Maybe someone recognizes him here! Thanks!

Maybe this article; DER SPIEGEL 19/1967 - Andere Sachen gewöhnt, might be a lead since there is a reference to a flight veteran Adolf Krogmann.
