Hi Gents, a collector friend asked me for help researching Oberst Bruno Zwick.

Every help much appreciated Kind regards Andreas

Hi Gents, this medal was located in an estate. All what I know is, that the former owner from this medal was German adviser to the national government of the chinese republic. I have never before seen such a medal. I appreciate any help in determining this order. Kind regards Andreas

Hi Douglas, it could be the hessische Tapferkeitsmedaille. Kind regards Andreas

Hi Nicolas, the last ribbon is Stanislaus order or medal, and the bulgarian ribbon is for military merit, therefor in front of the Hindy. Could also be NCO / Deckoffizier. Kind regards Andreas

No, they are definitely for an Oberst, a Hauptmann has not these fringes. Kind regards Andreas

Hi Wild Card, small addition from my collection. Happy Easter! Andreas

I am afraid, this is not possible, it must be a Kreuz für Kriegshilfe. Kind regards Andreas

Hi Paul, I´m rather sure, that it is this combination. Kind regards Andreas

Glad to have helped, always again Regards Andreas

Hi, I believe that it is for the Ordine dei SS. Maurizio e Lazzaro Regards Andreas

Sorry to say, your theory is wrong, the Gefechtsspangen were not awarded. You had to buy and to pay for them oneself, so if you would not buy one you could wear your medal bar without Gefechtsspangen, despite you were allowed to do so. Regards Andreas
