    Hello Gents,

    another Musikmeister and my question is, is it possible to identify him and

    which medal is on the 3rd place ?

    The photo is taken in Metz and on his medal bar he is wearing :

    - Bavarian Militärverdienstkreuz

    - Rother Adlerorden Medaille

    - ???

    - Centenarmedaille

    Regards

    Andreas

    In this photograph probably the Württemberg Friedrich Order Gold Medal.

    Thanks Glenn,

    is in the Militär - Musiker - Almach mentioned which medals he got. I can´t

    recognize his 3rd award on the bar.

    But the medal from the Friedrichsorden has a light blue ribbon.

    This one has side stribes.

    Could it be the goldene Verdienstmedaille des Kronenordens ?

    Regards

    Andreas

    In 1913:

    KD2

    Jubiläum Medaille

    Bayr. MVKrz

    Gold. M. v. Fr.-O

    Württ. Silb. VM

    Preuß KVM

    RAOM

    Krz. d. AE

    DA1

    Krz. d. Haus-O v. Hohenz.

    EM

    The Almanach uses different abbreviations for the orders but has no key.

    Regards

    Hello,

    he was born 1.2.1854 and startet in the army 1870. He died 17.101916 in a hospital in Metz.

    Ancestry shows a bavarian MVK 2 with crown and swords.

    On your picture might be a earlier MVK without crown.

    Please, show us a bigger picture of the bar.

    He got the silver medal for the war 1870 (non combattant)

    regtards Andreas
