I have a few WWI EKII's, but I can't remember what the mounting styles are called.

It had occurred to me that the image may be a PW or post war one with insignia denazified and an EKI worn as it's an "acceptable" Imperial one but thought the outline of the eagle seemed too pronounced to be the ghost of a removed one. I hadn't noticed the sleeve rings though.

The EKII ribbon worn on the buttonhole of the panzer wrap appears in many photos, but the LW blouse doesn't have such a buttonhole.

I havn't seen that site before - the "hassel" in the URL gave the initial clue and then when you see the reference to "Porta" - the work of a Sven Hassel fan then.
