Goring and his awards is something i have researched for a good many years....I have always had my doubts about this medal bar in the RAF museum ....the Flower War medals were the thing. I have seen a pic of him wearing a similar medal bar but with no Flower War medals. Here is the pic. I can see the following: EK, HHOX, Friedrich Order, Zah. Lion with Oaks, HCX, DA25, DA18, possibly West Wall/Anschluss medal, Luftshutz 1st Kl, Bulgarian War Medal. The ribbon bar pictured above does look to the same as the one he wore. What are the awards on the 2nd row? 1. Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander? 2. Italian Order of SS. Maurice + Lazarus? 3. Danish Order of Dannebrog? 4. Turkish War Medal/Italian Order of the Crown/Croation Order of King Zvonimir? 5. Bulgarian Order of Civil Merit? 6. Bulgarian Order of Military Merit/Bulgarian Order of Bravery/Romanian Order of Aeronautical Virtue? 7. Finnish Order of the White Rose? 8. Swedish Order of the Sword? 9. Italian Order of the Roman Eagle? 10. Japanese Order of the Rising Sun? 11. Spanish Order of the Yolk and Arrows? Best regards Pierce

2 STRANGE ribbon bars
P.F. replied to Noor's topic in Germany: Third Reich: State, Civil, NSDAP Awards & Decorations
Hi Timo, The 2 middle ribbons on the 4-place are fire service decorations, possibly 1st and 2nd class. The last ribbon i think is something Italian. The 3-place is unusual, 1 German Political award and 2 Spansih awards, both for Civial War Service. This ribbon bar could be a pre-Sept 1939 bar, belonging to someone who fought in the Spanish Civil War, whilst participating in some shape or form in the 1936 Olympics. Best regards Pierce
