Hi, all!    helping a friend here who has his father’s German Honor Cross, but no ribbon. I would like to get a ribbon and replace it, so wondering if anyone has instructions for how to do this style ribbon drape?     thanks in advance! Elizabeth

Not crazy special but found this German Army buckle at a garage sale Friday afternoon for $15. Dinged at the bottom but I figure the price was right! Only markings I see on back are the '1940' date.  

Just saw this and many thanks for the follow up information.

Hit a garage sale this afternoon and bought this buckle for $15. It's got a ding at the bottom and I know, I know, condition is important but for $15??? I don't see a maker mark, only the 1940 on the back.   

And its Single Breasted.

Navy raincoat buttons I think. I'm guessing they're WW2.  

Finally found who the French DSC recipient was, Lt Réne Michel.  Here's his DSC citation, as well as an account of the action from daily reports, a photo of the M10 TD he was wounded on and the area of the action.    

Hey Just discovered this, the Military Police Company of the Spanish Blue Division, 250th Infantry Division in the Heer line, Feldgendarmerie Trupp 250 was composed of men of the Guardia Civil, seems exclusively composed of. Though obliviously wearing German Uniforms ,   Here's a fantastic site on it, its in Spanish, if you don't speak Spanish like me you'll have to do the old Copy and Paste on Google Translate.   https://www.lasegundaguerra.com/viewtopic.php?t=2565

They are asking $30. What do you think?

I think it has a good chance of being original. Is it slightly vaulted?
