Eddieq Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Here is a nice little grouping. Firstly a wedding photo of one Gerhard Havemann. Second, his Spanish Civil War medal and other ribbons, thirdly his signet ring (which is visible in his wedding photo) and finally a post war driving license that puts a name to the face. I don’t know much about the Condor Legion but I presume from his ring that he was in Jagdgruppe 88! Nice thing to research. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Nice set. There were four possibilities - Panzer, Flak, Kampfflieger, Jagdflieger. He doesn't appear to have many other decorations, other than the 4 year service medal and the Kriegsverdienstkreuz. The swastika is missing from the medal ribbon bar, either a postwar replacement after 1957 or removed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddieq Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 Hi, yes, the swastika has been removed from the eagle on the medal ribbon bar, with magnification you can see where it was snipped off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
