If you make the connection to the navy only because of the blue color on the reverse then you should know that this not always the case. I love the medal bar although I would except a DA if he was in service since 1897 until end of war. But not necessarily. -

I had to scroll down a while to find this thread again. 👆Time to push it to the top 👆. Maybe a moderator can pin it to the top. I was looking for this patch for more then 10 years. Last year I had the chance to get one.

Never ever. Keep going. I own a picture album of Lt.d.R. Paul Köstlich member of LZ 86 with great pictures of the crew and airship. Thank you for showing this picture.

Correct, Kleinschmitt was the commander on Z VI at outbreak of war. But Hptm. Masius got the Ehrenbecher for the Attack of Antwerpen on 24. Aug. 1914 as Wachoffizier on Z IX led by Hptm. Alfred Horn.

The date indicates the beginning of the service. The first service does not have a date because it indicates that the service was at or before outbreak of war. on the last service it is often mentioned "bis Ende" (until the end) of war.

I assume that the Duke of Braunschweig awarded medals to other members of the crew as well. Comander Masius received the Orden Heinrich des Löwen. Steuermann Schwarz might received the cross too.

I would not touch the patina. The condition is fine for more then 100 years.
