I bought this Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse (War Merit Cross, 2nd Class) and would like your opinion on it. The ribbon is short and seems very clean, so not sure whether it has been replaced. The ribbon ring is marked with what appears to be the number ‘51′. Thanks for any help.

Hi all
I bought this in France in the Summer & so far have been unable to find anything out about it at all. I cannot find any images of anything similar & I have already spent many hours looking. My thoughts are it may be connected with the Army/ Navy Excellence award. Initially the Army & Navy Boards awarded separate flags until 7 months after Pearl harbour when it became a joint award. I have found an image of the Navy Flag but this had an "E" for excellence on which the later joint flags did too. Mine does not have this. Any thoughts or help would be gratefully received

The wreck of a German U-boat that sank almost 100 years ago has been discovered by engineers laying subsea power cables.
Remarkable sonar images show the missing World War One submarine is largely intact and lying off the Galloway coast.
Experts believe the vessel could be the UB-85, a sub sunk by HMS Coreopsis in 1918, according to official records.
However, naval folklore suggests it may have been attacked by a "sea monster".
Mysterious sinking
The entire crew of the U-boat is reported to have abandoned ship due to the "monster attack" and once aboard the British HMS Coreopsis, their commander, Captain Krech described their encounter.
He is said to have spoken of a beast with "large eyes, set in a horny sort of skull… with teeth that could be seen glistening in the moonlight".
He apparently claimed that the sub was so damaged in its battle with the "monster", it could no longer submerge. It was found floating on the surface of the water by the Coreopsis.
Dr Innes McCartney, a historian and nautical archaeologist who helped identify the wreckage, believes the discovery of the submarine could help solve the mystery of its final hours.
