    Hi all,

    is it allowed to wear more than 2 bands?

    Hello Westfale:

    I don't know what the regulations stated during this time, but this was a common practice. What is interesting here is that our brave Bavarian soldier has a TKM/MVM ribbon (and also an MVK and EK ribbon)! An with the EKI too! He definitely did something rather brave in combat at some point. Do you know his name? If so, I can look up his TKM/MVM citation information.

    Best regards

    what is his lowest neck order?

    "PERFECT" BADDDDDDDDDDD bars!!!! cheeky.gifcheers.gif


    I haven't done any MEDAL bars in the baaaaaaaaaaad original ribbon bars section because that's outside the scope of that ongoing endless work.

    Those are great photos of original period banger.gif To have the exact medal bar that is IN a dated period photo is just jumping.gifjumping.gifjumping.gif

    I have posted this one before (I know, I know) but it is still a perfect example, too:


    Generalmajor Bernhard Rathgen (1847-1927) in Strassburg 1901:

    Nice photo,
    is there a name or a unit on the backside?
    This could be a bavarian.

    New addition - an elderly Luftwaffe Oberleutnant wearing what I believe are two Treudienst Abzeichen (in Wehrmacht long service style) on his ribbon bar:

     

    (Back says "Friedrich und Grete, Juni 1941")
