    Default New Wound Badge Display

    Here's a riker mount display I put together from a newly arrived grouping. Interesting to me because it concerns a Panzergrenadier in 2nd Panzer division named Franz Düchler who received his 5th wound in Normandy. It consists of three of his wound badges, two silver and one gold, and the certificate to the gold. Unfortunately, I have nothing else from Gefreiter Düchler. Sadly, the zinc silver wound badge has suffered the fate of many zinc badges, but the Tombac example still looks good. I made up a little caption for the display and it appears I misspelled "Tombac" and got the date slightly wrong. Oops. My guess is that although this unlucky soldier suffered five wounds, his 5th wound was not serious as the certificate is signed by his regimental commander and not a doctor back in some hospital. *remember "click to enlarge"*

    Awesome!

    Great display. And great provenance.

    Congrats
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    Well executed, tastefully done display. The Verwundetenabzeichen still remains one of my favorite awards. Great looking trio you've got!
