Gaspare, may 2012 bring you and the ring forum contributors the recognition you so richly deserve. And may 2012 treat you better than 2011 did.
Nice photos.
Happy Holiday greetings all, --dj--Joe

Thanks guys and hope everyone had a good holiday...
Some of these items I only have because of my rings! One time to buy a ring I had to buy a tunic!,,it was sold as a set and when it rrived and I took it out of the box It had the pants with it as well as the guys personal documents!!, another time the seller said the ring came with a small box,,when it came it had several Nazi medals and photos in it!
* Good eye Joe! Yeah and that is directly from a vet of the unit. He had told me it was handed to him in a plain paper envelop and that he had seen others later in the war but only his unit got it with that ribbon. He wore it once and managed to pass it off to a relative shortly after getting it.. Don't know if you noticed on the YBB jacket that ribbon bar,,for me a rare bar, only one I've ever seen. I took it off and scrutinized the hell out of it and it looks right!

I did see the ribbon bar, 2nd class in gold w. swds. I do not recall seeing another gold mounted ribbon either. Have seen at least one bar with a silver if I recall correctly, it appeared period also.
