Hi, the man would wear a bavarian jubilee medal, the helmet could be bavarian municipal police and the axe could be a ceremonial (awarded) mining axe. Regards Uwe

Hi, this piece is pure fantasy, based on the design of a 1957 version (infantry assault badge): a "bird of paradise". Uwe

Hi seany, I don't talk (write) about prices, but this is a better one than many others. Uwe

Hi seany, it is a member's badge of the organization Deutsche Christen e.V. (DC) = German Christians (e.V. = incorporated society) Uwe

Hi Grant, I'm surprised about the ribbon bar. No medal Treue Dienste Silber for 10 years? Very unusual. Hervorragender Jungaktivist? The paper is upside down. Verdienstmedaille der Kampfgruppen der Arbeiterklasse? The paper is upside down. Kevin, that could be for certain merits. In my collection is a set of documents for a Lieutenant General with that medal (Kampfgruppen) in silver. Regards Uwe

Hi, Kammer der gewerblichen Wirtschaft f?r Wien = Chamber of the commercial economy for Vienna F?r treue Mitarbeit Frau Elfriede Chrobacek Wien = For loyal cooperation Mrs. Elfriede Chrobacek Vienna It could be for 25 years. And yes, Wien is in ?sterreich, the capital city of Austria. And it is not medical: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caduceus Regards Uwe

Hi Mike, hi Naxos, you can find always and everywhere idiots: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_M%C3%BCller Uwe

Hi Naxos, why there is a paradox? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Christians Regards Uwe

Hi Leigh, I think that the name is: Wiktor Kisiel (Kisiel Wiktor) Regards Uwe

KAG in Post 3 is correct Uwe

Hi, not carnival, but I think it is nearly the same, a "Reservistenabzeichen", a reservist's badge during his last day as soldier. In the upper field something like "Reserve hat Ruh!". (Sorry, I can not translate it with a Translator ) Sascha could be likewise right. Uwe

Hi bigD, try it now: I think, it is BD800 BD is the maker (?), 800 the silver content Regards Uwe

Hi, I want to show you this badge . It is not Deutscher Turnerbund, but have a look at the design : And here is the direct comparison, 1922 - 1933: Regards Uwe

Hi andy, Obergefr. = Obergefreiter = PFC 1. Bttr. K.S. Fu?a.-Btl. Nr. 152 = 1. Batterie k?niglich s?chsisches Fu?artillerie-Bataillon Nr. 152 The signature could be Emrich. Regards Uwe

Eric, you have found your king Ludwig Fries? http://www.sgnes.de/ Uwe

Hi, I don't think, that the first medal is for a "Sch?tzenk?nig". It is the name, Johann K?nig or Johannes K?nig. The second medal is definitely a price medal, and I think, that both were price medals. I Ritter, II. Ritter, Fl?gel, and other descriptions stand for different prices in a shooting on a bird. The bird has different parts, called Pfand or plural Pf?nder (see catchword Vogelschuss): http://www.jaegerzug-martinus.de/htmlseit/events.html The members and the guests of a shooting association shoot on different birds (Ehrenvogel, K?nigsvogel, Pf?ndervogel etc.), with a different number of the "Pf?nder". The first one, who shot down a Pfand, received a special price (it could be a goose, it could even be a medal like this here in the thread, it could be both). The shooters who had shot the first parts of the bird could be appointed knights (Ritter). "Er schlug die Pf?ndersch?tzen zu Rittern und ?berreichte ihnen den Pf?nderorden." The "Pf?nderorden" could be a medals or a cross, please see here for example: http://www.steinlueck.de/schuetzen/unterru...?unterrubrik=50 The I. Ritter and the II. Ritter could be assistants for the king (Pagen). Regards Uwe

Rick - award is correct, but not wear. All these men and women had enough medals at home . In my collection is one man with documents for 7 Kollektiv awards and 3 Aktivist awards. There are so many possible combinations: Uwe

Hi Rick, "From my reading of Bartel & Karpinski despite the little hook on back this was worn without any pendant solely as a ribbon bar on less formal occasions. Full formal all five individual ones would have been worn" Sorry Rick, but that is not correct. It is both, the "ribbon" for the medal and the Interimsspange: "Die jeweiligen Medaillen-, Mehrfach- oder Ehrenspangen sind zugleich Interimsspangen." Only the bar with 1975 is without the hook: "Ein Haken f?r die Medaille ist nicht angebracht." Here is a document for such an award, page 1 - 4: Regards Uwe

Hi, in my (German) documentation about the merit cross I can find regulations, and they say: Bronze 7 years of service (uninterrupted and excellent work) Silver 10 years Gold 15 years Uwe

Hi, there is Bara Banka in Bangladesh: http://www.maplandia.com/bangladesh/dhaka-...-zl/bara-banka/ Uwe

And the reverses: Uwe

Hi, the are no more marks. The Guard Insignia have a white underlay. I bought the complete set, with all the here shown parts (plus the trousers). The pieces are in a poor quality, both badges are metallic (magnetic):

Here is the upper part of the jacket/shirt: Uwe

Paul, I bought a green uniform (jacket and trousers) some years ago on ebay, maybe in 2004/2005. With some patches, badges, decorations, rank insignias and a red shoulder cord. It was sewn in poor quality (compared to German quality standard), here is the label: Uwe

Hi Lorenzo, here is the reverse, together with another questionable set Thank you Uwe
