"Kandidaten des eisernen Kreuzes"

This one gave me many pauses. In addition to the belt buckle they had this horrible thing of holding up a sign to tell me exactly who they were. However, if I am correct they have juxtaposed 2 of the words. Should it not be ersatz battalion L JR 65?

Thanks Joe. That's how I wrote it up under the original on Flickr. I think there would be a mutiny if 5. Rheinisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr.65 - or even RJR 65 were outfitted with those belts #-o

And how about these crazy belt-buckles?
