    I have checked some further sources but unfortunately no birth year.

    The Austrian medal is nicely made. I think I could provide an additional information to this soldier. There was a Private Hermann Hüne born on June 14th in Adelebsen, District Göttingen, who was wounded in Spring 1918. Best regards hoh1851

    Speaking of the Saxon Regiment 133 I found this photo of an officer of the (active, Reserve or Landwehr) Infantry Regiment 133 in my collection. Unfortunately unnamed.

    Many thanks for these information. Reicher seems to be initially a Reserve officer in the 72th Hungarian Infantry Regiment before becoming an active Lieutnant with rank from 1st November 1909 in this Regiment. Promoted to captain with rank 1st May 1917 his wounding is not yet mentioned in the Austrian-Hungarian casulty lists. At least in 1933 he was involved with the Austrian Jewish frontsoldier association. In 1938 he is listed as a Lieutnant-Colonel in Vienna, Rennweg 102.

    Many thanks again to all of you for this interesting discussion and the additional information. Speaking of the Bundesheer ribbon bar I saw that there are several Austrian Hungarian rank lists and schematismus online. Are the Bundesheer Schematismus/ Dienstranglisten somewhere online as well? Meanwhile I found some further pictures of Generalmajor Edler von Terboglaw in the Austrian National Archives but unfortunately only one is showing him wearing a ribbon bar. This photo was taken before the awarding of MVK2 and moreover it's of poor quality so not really suitable for a comparison. Best regards and thanks again hoh1851

    Hi Simius Rex, Many thanks for your reply and the valuable hints. 🙂 These are good news. Until now I didn't know that swords-devices were only given to officers. Is there a regulation available showing this? From knowing this is it also possible to determine the award beeing represented by the first bravery ribbon from the left at this bar? Any help is really appreciated. Many thanks in advance. Sincerly hoh1851

    Hello, I have this Austrian ribbon bar in my collection. I know that with regards to the ribbon of the Military Merit Cross/ Bravery Medal it is generally nearly impossibile to say which award (Military Merit Cross, Bravery Medal, Merit Cross with Crown, Military Merit Medal etc.) is meant. But since the bars to the awards were normally silver coloured I am wondering whether the award can be narrowed down in this case. In the past I have seen sometimes Military Merit Crosses with a golden bar and swords. Does anyone know whether this was official and if so whether it was only allowed to Military Merit Crosses or also to other awards? Any thoughts are welcome and appreciated. Thanks and best regards hoh1851

    Hi Laurentius, in my opinion there are no doubts with this bar. In the grouping was another one without the KVK ribbon. Best regards hoh1851
  15. hoh1851
    I was wondering whether this ribbon bar could belong to Ogilvie. When I bought this bar the seller also had a 3 place large medal bar from the former bearer (IC2 1914, Schwarzburg Medal Silver, Wehrmacht Long Service for 4 years) as well as a single Hohenzollern Hausorden. What are your thougths? Thanks hoh1851

    Hello, that looks perfect. Many thanks! Best regards, hoh1851
