Re: Schwesternkreuz
Welcome to the forum Kryptos and thank you for posting.
I have to admit knowing very little about these but they look like fine examples. Did they come on ribbons? Can you tell us more about these medals as they are quite rare to find.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

Re: Schwesternkreuz
Thanks for the welcome, guys! Looking forward to reading more in the forum.
Wolfspear is spot on there. The matron's crosses are even harder to find with the senior matron's cross being very rare.
The items were suspended from a neck chain and did not come on a ribbon at all.
