Attn.: Faked pic of Gen. Obst. Grauert
Hello to the whole community!
I found a pic of Gen. Obst. Grauert earlier today. I wondered about the Ritterkreuz and posted the pic in the Awards Forum.

Nick Mackay (Moderator of the Forum) confirmed that the Ritterkreuz in the pic is faked. It´s much too large, almost a Grosskreuz. Moreover he was awarded the Ritterkreuz as Gen. d. Fl. and the pic shows him as Gen. Maj.
It is a shame. That´s the only pic I have of Grauert.
Regards,
Stauffenberg II

As an example of Jeff's comments, here are 2 pics of GFM von Reichenau, 1 taken as a Generaloberst before receiving the Ritterkreuz, the other as a GFM with the RK. It is obviously the same pic with the RK added afterwards.
