Sorry for the late reply. Hugo Meurer did not receive the China-Denkmünze but the Südwestafrika-Denkmünze. It is a period mistake on the ribbon bar. Regarding the Rangliste 1918, it does not show foreign orders and furthermore it is not complete (Stand 14.02.1918). There were still 9 months to go until the war ended and many decorations were awarded in this time. Best regards Nicolas

Pretty unlikely, but could both LW eagles have been replaced? If they were Heer eagles before, later Generalmajor (posthum) Günther von Dewitz-Krebs would be a perfect match with HOH3X, EK1, SA3aX, HH, ÖM3K. He died on 05.06.1940 in France, but could have received his Wiederholungsspange before that date. Maybe you already found a match since the last post was made 14 years ago? Best Nicolas

Thank you very much for the clarification and the additional info! Pfeffer sounds like a very good match. Did he receive a Pr. EK2 or MEZ? Regarding the Tyrol/Red cross ribbon: I just cannot make out any green colour. I tried making a better photo, please have a look. Best regards Nicolas -

Hello, I agree with you regarding the Red Cross Honor Cross and a possible medical background. I don't know, what the most likely award would be regarding the last ribbon. I would have guessed, that we can rule out any Republic awards, as this type of ribbon bar construction is very likely post 1938. Best regards Nicolas -

Thank you very much for the info, Christian! Any chances the decoration at the end is an öster. Ehrenzeichen für Verdienste um die Republik? Probably unlikely, as the bar is post-1938, I guess. Best regards Nicolas -

Very interesting thread, gentlemen! I can contribute this ribbon bar to your discussion. No idea about possible identification? Best regards Nicolas -
