    It did seem like there was something of a "wave" of non-combatant EK bars floating around out there for a while, and the smaller of the two was one that I was able to scoop up during that odd period.

    Difficult indeed. I stupidly purged most of my noncombatant stuff in the mid-1990s when I went over to Soviet... and have not been able to find anything to replace The Lost Goodies.

    This Old Style looks like WW1,

    but actually belonged to Dr. Kohlstock, an African livestock diseases specialist who died of something nasty in China in 1901.

    The "white-black" "EK" here was actually a Prussian Crown Order 4X from the 1890s. This was his assignment to the Schutztruppen Colonial Main Office in 1899:

    And one of my few pre-1930s WW1 noncombatant bars is actually a mxture-- "black-white" EK

    BUT Anhalt Friedrich Cross ribbon with white, not pink, edges for noncombatants:

    Here is a ribbon bar I picked up at a local show. I am not sure how many NC things I do have.

    I think this is it for me. Rick L helped me on this one. I like it because it is a two war bar without a Hindenburg Cross. I seem to not like those anymore due to their connection with the TR.
