Hi Antonio,

thanks for answering.

I know the official site, but unfortunately both email adresses, info@.. and webmaster@.. , don´t work.

Maybe it is only a "German" problem, but I cannot contact them. I tried weeks ago.

The seller of these medal I know, too.

He only offers this one and doens´t have further information. I asked him weeks ago, too.

The shoulder slide looks like a Cpl, and the CCH chevron was added later.

Hi there,

I wonder about the shirt and the tie.

Why doesn´t he wear a regiment breast badge?

Why does he wear a CdG ribbon, when he was in Indo in the 50s?

Do you have other pictures of your uncle?

Or some more information?

Michael

Hello,

I am searching for information about the medals of the ECOWAS (Economic Community Of West African States)

Is there anywhere in the net a site which shows all medals?

Michael

Hi Chris,

the wine which is soled in the IILE http://www.legion-etrangere.com/modules/info_seul.php?id=97 and in the foyers of the regiments, also the legion ceramic souveniers (see picture http://iile.legion-etrangere.com/modules/info_seul.php?id=5&page=1) which are made and painted by the anciens, are to support the Instutitue.

If it is what I thnk it is, than it is a collar insignia of the Carabinieri.

It is about 1x3 inch.

watch this

http://93-63-251-100.ip30.fastwebnet.it/ntmi/images/2010/NTM-I%20114th%20Police%20Graduation%20Art%2041/JPEG/003.jpg

In the first I thought of italian police.

The next is from a legionnaire actif, meanwhile Caporal, who finished a six month trip with the 2. REI in Senegal last year.

Here anther interesting peace.

A Captain´s kepi of the 1. REC, a former legionnaire, who became officer.

Watch the chevrons, you can see, that this kepi was a former 1st Lt. and was upgrated to a captain.

The lowest chevron is brighter silver and the right vertical, too.

Between the lowest and the middle silver chevron you can recognize a red string.

Hi Paul,

these belong to the Legion arm insignia http://images-01.delcampe-static.net/img_large/auction/000/145/691/630_002.jpg?v=1

Thanks.

Lieutenant Colonel Hans Eberle wa a German who served 37 years in the Legion, started with the rank of Legionnaire.

The legionnaires know him as "Mein Gott"

Here is another.

Each small line under the rank chevrons means five years service.

And you can find him twice in this book

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61MHKXVBRDL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

most people only know the picture of him as Cne. in Castelnaudary.

f... I still cannot handle showing pictures :banger:

Hi there,

here is one photo of my collection by legion insignia which were worn by LCL Hans Eberle.

The picture of him was made by me during a five-day-visit at his home near Nimes in 2007. You can find it several times used in the internet.

well, next try.

here is the picture.

Hi Chris,

the extra chevrons of the musicians are as wide as the rank chevrons and the design is another.

It looks more than the aspirant cords.

Well, maybe the French want to show the difference between Croid de guerre and others.

The fourragere CVM also hasn´t fourrageres MM and LH with olives. it has olives in the coulours of MM and LH and combined.

Hi,

today I have found a picture of this new fourragere.

Hi ralstona,

I just contacted this evening a friend, he is caporal and regiment photographer of the 4. REI in Castelnaudary.

Maybe he will find a answer.
