Great story! I've always been interested in ww2, I had relatives that fought on both sides.

I'm trying to identify his medals, looks like a 'Wound Badge' and a 'General Assault Badge(silver)'. The red ribbon (I'm taking a bit of a stab) to say it's a Campaign ribbon (Russia?). The insignia on the left arm means 'Kreigsmarine Engineer' (I think). The Aiguillette is also a decoration of some kind, but I'm at a loss on that one. Also, he was a First Lieutenant. *Edit* oops, how could I forget, an Iron Cross (not sure of the class).
