Question Vehicle compliment of telegraph battalion

Good day as the subject says does anyone know the vehicle & horse drawn equipment compliment of a telegraph battalion, specifically No. 5, 6, and 7 telegraph battalions? From a Polish publication (and others) on these three units I’ve a fair sense of the number of personnel, field phones, cable etc and their movements during the Sept campaign but no idea of wheeled equipment. From http://www.rkd.friko.pl/patrol.html and Forum dyskusyjne - Oglnopolski miesicznik ODKRYWCA they likely used a combination of samochód Polski FIAT 508/518 & cable/equipment trailer and horse drawn wóz telefoniczny wz.37Ł. Does anyone have a better idea of just how much wheeled equipment and what type these or similar units had?

Thanks in advance for your patience.

Question Another Iron Cross dilemma

Hi,

A friend of mine just bought this Iron Cross yesterday.

He later found out in a magazine article that, because of the packaging it came in, it might be a fake. I’d say it looks more real then the one I purchased I while ago and that I just posted about earlier today. Then again, I don’t know much about this topic.

Any thoughts?

Thanks so much! And sorry for the many postings today. We just stumbled upon your great site and we got tons of questions…
