    6. PKeating, Thanks for posting this. I have to admit that this is the first one that I've seen. Well, that's one more to collect!! Doc
    7. Thanks Dan!!! I noticed it was missing from the list. He has TOOOOOOOOO many ODMs!!! I was looking at the ODMs of the British Royals and I knew the Queen and Prince Phillip had TOOOOO many but, I think he comes pretty close to having the equivalent number as HM Queen Elizabeth II. Doc

    13. USAF, That's a VERY nice bar!!! I love the Order of the Sacred Treasure. I also like the Red Cross Medal as I have both the Men's and Women's version. Again a Nice ounted group!!! Doc
    14. HAPPY RED ARMY DAY!!! THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THE ORDERS, MEDALS AND RESEARCH THAT YOUR EXISTANCE HAS PROVIDED US!!! Doc
    15. Condor, Please uncover the swastikas below the eagles. I'd like to take a look at them. It's not necessary to cover them as they are a part of the medal. We study the Orders and medals of the period. The horrible events that the swastika represents is what it is...Horrible but factual. Doc
    16. Thanks to Charles I now have an Eisernes Verdienstkreuz. The Iron Merit Cross on the ribbon of the Bravery Medal was instituted on 1 April 1916 by the Emperor Franz Joseph for enlisted troops and low-level officials. It was given on the bravery ribbon for meritorious service in war. A solid red ribbon was intended for awards made in peacetime, but no such awards were ever made. Doc Obverse

    18. That's a Great group you have there!!! I like your collecting theme. Doc
