Coming into this a little late but I very much enjoyed this thread. I had the pleasure of staying a year in Addis Ababa. During that time I tried to accumulate as much phaleria from Ethiopia as I could from all periods: Imperial, Derg and Post-Derg. So you may find this useful. 1st picture is the first (Gold) and second (silver) class public service medals. They came in either East German or Czech plastic cases and were pretty ubiquitous around Churchill Avenue (the main avenue that held many of the antique and curios in Addis). The Second Picture is the military version of the 1st.

Thanks Uwe,
OK so my Kampforden is Ohne-Kriegsbande (without war band) I think. (file was too big to attach). I have heard that some were awarded though. So unlike the Bluecher Orden, the Kampforden mit Kriegsbande was awarded to troops? Did the recipients receive the award by being an MIL-adviser like in Ethiopia, Angola, Vietnam etc.?
