    1. Thank you I will update the ribbon sheets In 1919, the regent of Ethiopia Tafari Makonnen (future Emperor Hailé Selassié) undertook to ensure the training of Ethiopian officers by Russian soldiers. In 1920, some Ethiopian officers also received training at the Saint-Cyr military school. Between 1929 and 1935, a Belgian military mission trained the officers of the Imperial Guard and in January 1935, thanks to the assistance of Swedish officers, the Emperor created the Hailé Military School Selassié I in Holeta, near Addis Abeba. Engaged in fighting against the Italian invader, the first promotion will never end its internship and the development of a modern army will only begin after the liberation of Ethiopia in 1941. The Holeta military school still exists; It is also known as Genet's military school. This medal seems to have been created to reward the best students of the Hailé Selassié I. Half white and red ribbon. In the shape of a shield, the badge is surmounted by the imperial crown, surrounded by spears and swords. At the obverse, in the center, is the monogram of the emperor. Around, both in French and amharic, there are the date of creation of the school "1935" (1927 according to the Ethiopian calendar) and the mention "Hailé Military School Slassié I". On the reverse, a ring fixing ball is fixed; Below, appears an amharical text meaning: “Having royal ancestry will have no influence on your future; Only the work will guarantee your success - Hailé Selassié I - April 14, 1935 - Hailé Selassié I ”(free translation) Military School. There seem to be two different manufacturing of this medal, one in silver bronze, the other in cupronickel.

    13. Los personajes condecorados del Museo del Ejército (in spanish, only) The decorated characters of the Army Museum Author: Fernando Yuste Romero This work aims to become a reference text for the knowledge of the decorations of the historical characters present in the works of the Army Museum. Description The intention of this study is to have a complete work on the description of decorations (phaleristics) of military, uniformed and decorated characters, both of the pieces in its permanent exhibition and those kept in its warehouses and which represent almost three times what is on display to the public. This work thus facilitates the work of scholars and researchers in this field and provides basic notions to curious people and the general public to contemplate a work, identify the character represented with his uniform and know the symbolism of his insignia and decorations.
