    Look at, I believe, the 3rd or 4th picture, you can actually see them pushing into his neck, leaving a small indent...

    the crosses might be real, but seeing as no one has even a single mark from the pins i would think they are fake. Someone, somewhere would make a mistake and prick themselves. these pictures show no evidence of that and must therefore be elaborate forgeries.

    On the close up there is some typical 'shop blurring as the pin ends touch the neck of the soldier. Also, there is no distortion on the fabric of the shirt collar from where the pin is supposedly protruding.
