Sorry that I can't help but I'm sure someone here will be able to offer information. I'd like to see photos of your grandfather and pics of his medals. If you don't mind... -
Christophe, Can you show us the reverse?

Wow, I've never seen that insignia. Actually, navy insignia and photos are uncommon in my years of collecting. I don't see much Navy militaria. -
Here it is...

This photo?

Here a Prussian Staff officer Kleiner Rock. Bulgarian Bravery Order IV Class, Grade I on right breast EKI and Lippe-Detmold Officer's Cross on left breast HHO on war ribbon original to tunic. All loops original also. Hussar Rgt 17 cap, can't find a Prussian Generals Staff fieldgrey visor.

What about Hesse?
-
Oh, I've never heard the correct name. How does that translate to english?
-
I'm not sure what the Harp Madalyasi 1915-22 is? Can you show a picture.
-
Hi Christophe, Is it personal preference as to where someone placed the Turkish War Medal?
-
Great Stuff indeed. What about Hesse? How were Bravery medals and War Honor Decorations in Iron handled? Could an NCO or Feldwebel-Lieutnant be awarded the War Honor in Iron without having an EKI?

I am looking for photos of Germans wearing foreign awards and the various methods for wear. I've seen a few photos of the Turkish War Medal worn on the left breast. Were there regs for these awards? Also, I'd like to see how most of the Bulgarian decorations were worn. I think the only two foreign breast awards I seen in wear are the Turkish War Medal and the Bulgarian Bravery Order.

Do you need my address?
-
Now I'm confused. I didn't realize there were three ribbon types and swords could be worn with all three. I thought one was peacetime and one wartime. I need to find my ribbon chart again. I lost it last year. Are there any books available that correctly show all Imperial German state ribbons? Is the below site's ribbon chart accurate? http://www.bundesverdienstorden.de/

Why is the Austrian ribbon in 3rd place?
-
That's a darn shame. To be honest, I never thought any bar would be identifiable until I found the forums. Having a photo showing a bar in wear that matches one in hand was the only way I thought possible. When are your roll books going to be ready? I'm ready...
-
Rick, I do like that ribbon bar. I've only seen one that large in period photos.
-
My bavarian bar. i may be the only guy who has bars with the black ribbon of the Malta or Johannitor orders.
-
One of my favorites. Black ribbon but the backing isn't blue. It's gray so I'm sure its army. Maybe a staff officer.
-
The second ribbon bar is missing the wreath on the Austrian ribbon. I bought this one several years back from forum member. This one has been discussed because but I don't recall the 6th ribbon has ever been mentioned as a vererans medal. Interesting. I have three or four bar with black ribbons. One is bavarian.

Question Should the 1st ribbon bar have a crown with red enamel on the Red Eagle Order ribbon?
-
Eugen Duerr/D?rr, Major 21.2.1911 Hptm in IR 74 in 1908, Adjutant at the Reichsmilit?rgericht in 1913 (with the uniform of IR 74), What does this mean? Uniform of... IR 27 in 1914 Was he a Major or Oberst? He died on 10.9.1918 in Bad Oeynhausen. What unit? BTW, I have another with blue back and I'm not sure its Navy. I think its Army.
-
Shouldn't the Centenary Medal be listed?
-
Oh, I forgot about the ue spelling instead of ?. Maybe that's him. Ii's hard to know for sure unless there's a wartime or post war listing for D?rr
