I am a real sucker for documents... hope you are to!
Please note, award certificates are often folded, I will make no extra mention of that.
Don't let a fold, crease or tear spoil your fun... slightly damaged docs are just as historically relevant....
I am looking for any and all EK docs for Sturm units, Infantry, Jäger etc.
I am more than willing to trade.
