The wearing of Medals and Awards is often a hot button topic amongst reenactors. In this, the latest in his series of deep dives, Rudi Lange looks at Assault and Close Combat Awards and tackles the thorny question of if they should be worn within the hobby.

The book that Rudi references and recommends towards the end of the episode is...

"The Face of Courage : The 98 Men Who Recieved the Knight's Cross and the  Close-Combat Clasp in Gold" (Stackpole Military History)
