Early WWI German dog tags for Walter Bähr and Wilhelm Höpfner, two soldiers who were in 6 Kompanie Reserve Infanterie Regiment 227. The tag of Walter Bähr has this very clear on the front, while on Wilhelm Höpfner's tag the stamp of the aforementioned unit is unclear on the back. They both survived.

Today's delivery was a good one, not normally an axis collector but I couldn't turn down this (and some other bits of documentation) for £30.

Can anyone please identify the medals of this Luftwaffe Unteroffizier? I got his portrait (from 1942) today and I'm not good at German medals.

[German > German) Four WWII German military casualty cards, for soldiers I have the memorial cards of. I don't need a translation, just someone to read the handwriting as I can't. I prefer to research stuff in its original language to not lose any information with translation.

[German > English] Can anyone read this (probably place name) on the back of a WWII photo I found?
