    I have posted up a gallery of WW2 German medals here if anyone would like to check them out ;

    http://www.militaria-archive.com/Medals.html

    Click on the General Assault Badge to open the gallery.

    Here are what is included ; Iron Cross 2nd Class, Winterschlacht im Osten 1941/1942 (Winter Battle in the East 1941/1942), Verwundetenabzeichen (1939 Wound Badge), Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen (Infantry Assault Badge), Sturmabzeichen (General Assault Badge), DRL (Deutscher Reichsbund für Leibesübungen) Sports Badge, Sturmabteilung (SA) Sportabzeichen (Sports Badge), Krim Shield, NSDAP Treudienst Ehrenzeichen (25 year Faithful Service medal), Cross of Honour 1914 - 1918 (Hindenburg Cross), Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2.Klasse mit Schwertern (War Merit Cross 2nd Class with Swords), Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2.Klasse (War Merit Cross 2nd Class), Kriegsverdienstmedaille (War Merit Medal), 'Flower War' Medals - Anschluss Medal, Memel Medal, Deutsches Schutzwall Ehrenzeichen (West Wall Medal), Ehrenkreuz Der Deutschen Mutter (Cross of honour for the German Mother), Deutschen Rotes Kreuzes Social Welfare Medal.

    Included at the end are a couple of medals from both the Franco Prussian War and World War One as well as a novelty badge from a british postage savings plan, some insignia and a German shooting plaque.

    The Krim shield and GAB are the 2 items I am not 100% certain of - so comments welcomed on those in particular.

    Cheers, I have since found out the Krim shield is a fake. I know the dealer also so will be sure to bring that one along to the next fair.
