Finally then here the 3rd document - also in German, only the award booklet is in Korean with the exception of some personal details on Funke in German in it - from the "Korea-Help Committee with the National Council of the National Front of the GDR".
It is a long letter from Max Nierich (president of the committee) addressed to Funke (but perhaps a form letter with only his name customized on top) where he congratulates Funke with receiving the award on 29-5-1954 (date in line with the doc with the bus details, but different from the date in the award booklet - so perhaps that date was the date of the decree instead). Then a bunch of text about the help of Funke assisting Korea in their struggle against the american aggressors etc etc
Then text indicating how important it is to actually wear the award and how the award should be worn.
