    1. ...maybe included in a little display 1943 Savage Arms made M1A1 (deactivated according to current german weapons law).
    2. Hi gents, any opinions on this medal bar I've recently bought?
    3. Speaking about the Blücher-Orden. This is the collection of them in the Militärhistorisches Museum der Bundeswehr in Dresden. I think they took the complete safe out of the basement of the PräWeMa und took it there. There are hundreds of all classes of the Blücher-Orden and Blücher-Medaille inside.
    4. I got an answer from the seller. Only some numbers are visible on the GSM, nothing else. I think I will not buy it. Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
    5. Ok, I've asked the seller and he said, its almost impossible to read the engraving on the General Service Medal. The others aren't engraved.
    6. Unfortunately I don't know it and the seller did not mention it.
    7. Hi guys, I think about buying this one but a medal is missing. Any idea which one? Maybe a coronation or jubilee medal?
    8. Thank you, Tony. I've checked the link and it seems not to be from WWII.
    9. I think our "Bundesländer" prefer to create their own stuff as often as possible.
    10. Hi gents, what do you think about this one? Is it original? WWII? It measures about 6 x 6 cm.

    12. Here is the Niedersachsen flood medal 2013. I had the chance to get a couple of them with ribbon, so if someone is interested -> PN
    13. Its this one: Alexander von Sallach Die Orden und Ehrenzeichen unserer Republik
    14. Sachsen-Anhalt: http://www.radiobrocken.de/sites/default/files/imagecache/unterbeitrag/img_beitrag/medaille.jpg
    15. That would be cool to get more information about them. They look very well made, especially compared to the crap they produce nowadays.
    16. This is extremely interesting! Never heard anything about this award. Thanks for posting.
    17. This is a really interesting part of our military history! There is a good documentary about it on youtube, but its in german only. They mention a cool story in it, how the change appeared in some NVA units: A former Stabsfeldwebel of the NVA, today he is an Oberstabsfeldwebel in the Bundeswehr, was member of an NVA Air Force radar team working in a bunker. On the day, as the NVA stopped to exist, they went into their bunker for their nightshift with two (!) sets of uniforms! The NVA one they were wearing, and a set from the former "Klassenfeind" Bundeswehr. Exactly a 0:00 o'clock the order came: Change uniforms! In the morning they left the bunker as Bundeswehr soldiers.
    18. Niedersachsen: http://www.ndr.de/regional/niedersachsen/heide/fluthelfer129_v-contentgross.jpg
    19. I think its run by A. Sallach who is the author of the book about current german awards too.
    20. Finally a good photo of the federal flood relief medal 2013. As the photos are with copyright, here is the link only. It seems this time they used a better design compared to the 2002 medal. This site contains many high quality images of other modern german awards too! http://www.die-deutschen-orden.de/ordensuebersicht/bundeslander/bundesauszeichnungen/einsatzmedaille-fluthilfe-2013/
    21. Next update and another photo ("Flutehrenzeichen 2013" from the state Schleswig-Holstein which is a ribbon-only award): Medals: Germany (federal): Einsatzmedaille "Fluthilfe 2013" Brandenburg: Elbeflut-Medaille des Landes Brandenburg (2013) Saxony: Sächsischer Fluthelfer-Orden 2013 Lower Saxony: Hochwassermedaille 2013 des Landes Niedersachsen Thuringia: Hochwasser-Medaille des Landes Thüringen 2013 Ribbons: Flutehrenzeichen 2013 des Landes Schleswig-Holstein Badges: Mecklenburg-Vorpommern: Ehrennadel des Landes Mecklenburg-Vorpommern "Fluthelfer 2013" Bavaria: Abzeichen "Fluthelfer 2013" Sachsen-Anhalt: Fluthelfer-Ehrennadel des Landes Sachsen-Anhalt 2013
