| The pictures are not so bad, buying the rings on the other hand may get expensive.

Your guess is as good as mine, I still have not found proof that they really did exist or were worn. Anybody know any german WWII pilots that could show them or ask them?

| Micdrow: Seeing your collection, I questioned me a matter: For wich reason the german officers wear/put in his fingers those rings? A gift, or conmemorative or is a condecoration/award.....? Jan.

I wished I owned those ring. The collection is just photo's that Ive found. Like you I have lots of questions but so far have not found anyone that could even begin to answer them. Some I believe are comemorative and others I think are graduation rings like the engineering ring but still have not found out for sure.

| Hi Amsel, through the years Ive found these on ebay. The legion of condor ring shows up every once in a while though I currently dont think there are any available. One of those things that you have to keep checking back for.
