NCO/Enlisted Military Service Decoration - Need Help
gjw replied to gjw's topic in Austro-Hungarian Empire
Hey Tony, it was the Long Service Cross. I was on vacation and was updating my cataloging. But didn't bring any reference books. Just thought I'd ask so I could update that file. I did get the info when I got home. Thanks so much my friend Greg -

Hope it's OK to post this. Anyway, this fellow on the KuK Militaria Collectors Group on FB, Ralph Burton, had put up for sale a Carinthia Cross for Merit. The price was fair, so I brought it. Well after a back and forth over which PayPal address to send the payment, payment was sent and received. Then, all of a sudden, the postage went up and after I requested a Tracking Number, he said I had to contact the sending outfit. The mailing center informed me I had to pay 150 Pounds to get it shipped. Contacted the seller and basically he said he did his part. Asked for a refund and he wouldn't give one saying he was broke. PayPal can't help as payment was sent F&F. Well you live and learn. Just thought I would let you all know so you won't get burned. Best to all Greg

Added A Couple More To My Bulgarian Collection

Thanks as always! -
Hey all, I'm trying to get the straight story on a couple of these decorations. I have a 12 and 6 year cross with a wreath around the center disk. I've read (can't remember where) that the wreathed Crosses were for veterans. I know the 1867-1869 12 year cross had the wreath. So....my esteemed friends, what's the skinny on the wreathed Crosses? Many thanks Greg
