Certificate to the Iron Cross 1st Class. 9.5.1945 (!) issued by "Der Kommandierender General der Deutschen Luftwaffe in Norway". Original ink signature of Generalleutnant Ernst-August Roth. Not folded once. A very rare document issued on the last day of WW2!
Certificate fort he Air Gunner Badge with lightning. Issued on 16.8.1943 issued. Folded once.
 
Fine Air Gunner Badge with lightning made by Assmann in a rare "Bordfunkerabz." case of issue. The badge lost most of its finish but is in good condition 2. It is maker marked. The case is just beautiful!
Another zinc Air Gunner Badge made by Deumer. Maker marked. Slight corrosion to the eagle. Good condition.
Squadron Clasp for Aufklärer in silver. Zinc. Unmarked. Not much finish left but definitely a silver grade.
 
An excellent 1939 Iron Cross 2nd Class. Just mint with perfect finish. 3 maker marked. It comes with a matching Deumer maker marked bag of issue. The bag is in condition 3.
1939 Iron Cross 1st Class again in mint and unworn condition. No wonder, since awarded on 9.5.1945! The cross is 26 maker marked. It comes in the correct case of issue. This type is known for maker 26. Unfortunately it is damaged to one side but can be repaired. It is opening and closing correctly.
 
Very nice photo album which looks scruffy from the first view however it is in very good condition. It is only the extra protection papers which are party loose.
Photos start with this RAD time, the rest is full of wartime Luftwaffe photos. Roughly 101 photos inside the album. Around another 60 loose photos. Voss has carried on flying after the war. There are quite a new nice 1960s period time photos showing him enjoying his hobby.
 
His NSFK Werkstattdienstbuch and a German-French dictionary.
