Claudio Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Colin Freiherr von Halkett (22.11.1867-30.08.1924), Commander IR 182 16.02.1916- 08.1916 Superb group... I like especially the Bulgarian green order, which is also so beautifully confirmed of the photo and the ZVO1Kl... too bad that the medallion on the back is missing! :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Gentlemen, If I may. This is so hard to believe, I hesitate asking. With regard to post #45 (General’s ribbon bar), is it my aging eyes or is his collar tab on backwards! A general? really? If it is correct, I apologize for taking your time. Regards, Wild Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Saxony mounted a lot of medals on tri-folds. I don't know the dates when they did this, but I have handled/seen many Saxon bars mounted like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beau Newman Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Until 1866, Saxony was more closely aligned with Austria than Prussia. They fought on the Austrian side in the Austro-Prussian War. As a result, many of their military traditions had Austrian influences. The tri-fold mount was one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Boonzaier Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Does anyone have any wartime pics showing the trifolds being worn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
