Does anyone know how many PVA’s the knights cross winner Albert Dubicki (KC:12.08.1944 ), Unteroffizier, VB 1./WerferRgt 14 received?
I found a picture of him on line in the Bundeswehr where he appears to have at least one PVA on his ribbon bar, but it could be gold (5)?
I’m looking at a signed photo for sale on line which states that he has the Kuban shield and 6 PVA’s!!! Apart from the BW photo, I can’t see any photo’s of him with any PVA’s.

Not a named recipient, this officer, but I just found this image and thought it might belong here.

Best wishes,

Damned well spotted, Hardigan!

Mike, the TDB of Hein is probably a sort of cloth type or maybe even a golden version.

And another one with 5, looks like 2 golden ones between them. After the 5th TDB you were awarded with a golden one. Don't know who it is.

Are you sure that’s a PVA Hardigan? From this one photo, I’m not convinced.
