    5. Hello Lilo,

      you're right about the ribbons of the 2nd type (royal) of Red Cross;below is detail description.

      If you would need any additional info of any Serbian/Yugoslav decorations, I'll be happy to provide...

      After Serbia was proclaimed a kingdom in 1882, the design of the Cross of the Serbian Red Cross Society was changed. The decoration retained its basic appearance, but now the double-headed royal eagle was placed on the obverse of the cross instead of the coat of arms of the Principality of Serbia. On its breast the eagle has a shield with the Geneva cross, the symbol of the International Red Cross. The cross is surmounted by a royal crown and it measures 62 x 40 mm. The decoration was made of silver. The ribbon of the Order of the Cross of Takovo was replaced and two types of ribbons were stipulated. Crosses awarded in peacetime were suspended on a white ribbon and crosses awarded in war had 3-mm-wide red stripes on the edges. War ribbons were used for the first time during the Balkan Wars. Male recipients wore the cross on a 36-mm-wide triangular ribbon on the left of the chest, whereas women had their decorations on a 26 &#150; 28-mm-wide ribbon, folded into a bow.

      Bellow: Cross of the Red Cross Society of the Kingdom of Serbia and Kingdom of Yugoslavia, on white peace-time ribbon; decoration is made by Arthus-Bertrand, Paris
