Hi Andrzej

As my list is not complete I could be getting mixed up, but I only have one Mazur Ryszard 12PULP. MCC 8392. 1913/123/III

Page 139 of the Monte Cassino list. Is there another ?

Regards Kevin

Andrzej,
in your post #3210 you said:

Military ID Card for Ppor. Antoni Oprządek, Born 1909, Army Number : 1909-15-III, Unit : 4BSK, Monte Cassino Cross Numbered : 9803 (awarded when a Sierz.Pchor.).

But I have seen a legit for this gentleman showing MCC numbered 9802. could I ask you to kindly double check your reference?

Regards,

Ted

Hello Ted,

Many thanks for your post you are correct I just caught the wrong numeric key on my keyboard, that's no excuse I hear you say, the fact being that I have recently lost the sight in my right eye. Due to a blood vessel bursting at the back of my retina. Diagnosed with Central Retinal Vein Occlusion.

I admit I will make mistakes especially at night when I am tired or have just taken my morphine, I take 10 different drugs everyday now.

I am pleased that you pulled me up on that mistake if you find any more please let me know.

Best wishes

Andrzej
