Default KC grouping

Just checked this section and I saw no posts today.
That must be a new record but I will brake it with this RK grouping

I just see that I forgot a few items, but they are not 57's, so we dont miss a lot!
First up is a shot of the group.

The recipient didn't join the BW but did get himself a ribbon bar.

I just tested the boatswains pipe to see if it works, and it does works very well. What a noice

When I blew the wistle all around me became very brave and went straight into the attack mode.
My wife ordered me to quit and bravely took the wistle out of my mounth.

But more impressive was the blitz attack from a well known KC winner General von Parrothoffen.

That was it for this week.

A very nice group Luud!
I like it very much, the RK is wonderful.

It looks to me, that he bought his RK and the stickpin very early and in his old days he bought the ribbon bar.
When I know right there were only a few men awarded with the Minensuchabzeichen and the Ritterkreuz.

a fantastic grouping would be brilliant to put a name to the set
clearly a set to a very brave man can't be that many people to get the rk and minesweeper (im sure Rüdiger will know him)

best regards
tom

ps what type of parrot is the general

Again, another nice group from you Luud. The RK is very special and I'm sure General Von Parrotoffen is devising an attack plan so be careful when you take him out of his cage next time.

Thanks for showing.

Great grouping Luud!!!
All very nice pieces, i guess the RK has to be the star of the show, as you say, a very early 1st pattern "B" frame, and what looks like original wartime loop, ribbon and fastenings!!! I think i count 24 white threads?
It has been a quiet day in the 57 section today, but you have made it another good day with this wonderful group!!
Thanks for showing Luud!!!!!!!!
