Russian hand-writing…

Hi,

Can someone help in understanding the written hand-writing on this award certificate? such as the name of the receiver and the bottom issuing party, rank, location....

Many thanks.

Can you ID this Luiftwaffe Officer?

This foto is from a US vet's album. He incorrectly labeled the Luftwaffe Officer as Rommel. I have seen this same mistake made before - with the same Luftwaffe Officer, in the same foto.. I guess anybody wearing a greatcoat & a RK looks like Rommel to the unknowing. :mad: I was wondering if anybody recognizes this Luftwaffe Officer? This foto was widely distributed, I guess. Thanks.

Gutschein & lottery

Hi,

These items, what would the DRK be doing before the war? this would be for raising funds?

The gutschein here, seems to be more propaganda during the war...
