waldo Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) @ Chris, Ein Soldat aus dem Mannschaftsstand mit Tapferkeitsmedaille, der 1849, 1866 und 1870/71 mit dabei war und seine anrechenbare Dienstzeit über 40 Jahre war. Nach dem Ausscheiden aus dem Militärdienst bekam er wohl dann noch die Zivilverdienstmedaille. Kann man auch in meinem Buch nachlesen.

waldo Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) It really is a beautiful medal bar. Also note the quality of the MVK. The originals all have a real golden front-medallion. The only manufacturers were Leser and Hemmerle. Edited November 16, 2017 by waldo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but I managed o narrow it down to the unit as there was only one Bavarian unit in the Ostsee-Division. Perhaps more your taste as it was the Kgl. Bayerische Gebirgs-Artillerie-Abteilung Nr. 2, which had previously a part of the Alpenkorps before being transferred to the Ostsee-Division which fought in Finland.

Anyways, the Tirol connection does in my opinion confirm it the the Gebrigs-Artillerie-Abteiling 2 which was a former unit of the Alpenkorps which fought in Tirol.

Chris Boonzaier Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Waldo, you make me Sabber! Do you know if there is any research possibility for researching WW1 recipients through the former association of winners? I mean over and above what is in the regular archive records. I would like to know about postwar occupation, possible photos etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waldo Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) Thanks @ Chris: If I understand you correctly with my bad English, do you want to know dates of the postwar association of the Order of the Bavarian Medal for Bravery? (The medal for the bravery was not a order, but they called themselves after the war ....) Edited November 26, 2017 by waldo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waldo Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I have estates where the TM was not mounted on the medal bar at all. These medal bars are always made after 1918 Unfortunately, I have almost no pictures that I can publish. Andreas (Spolei) certainly has several of them.
