Thank you very much for the information! I would assume then that one would receive a silver bar for every 6 months of front service?
Best regards!

Hello Everyone,
Would any of you happen to know what the correct ribbon is for the Montenegrin 1875-78 War Medal? I have been doing some research, and I have found photographs of King Nicholas (see link below), and Prince Danilo wearing this medal, and it is definitely a triangular white ribbon, with THREE red stripes, not white with TWO red stripes as it is usually found.

Also, in Dimitri Romanoff's book, "The Orders, Medals, & History of Montenegro," he states that the ribbon was either white with 3 red stripes, OR a red ribbon with 2 white stripes (possibly the first one for military, and the second for civilian war supporters?). The red one with 2 white stripes looks identicle to the Austrian Order of Leopold ribbon.
So, which one is correct!?
Thank you very much in advance for any information you can provide!
