Deruelle Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hi In a local show I found two new ribbon bars. Both for officer. Not a great ribbon bar but very nice for me.First one :Iron cross 2nd classKnight cross of Hohenzollern with XCross of Honour with XLong service cross, or reserve service crossAustrian commemorative medal for WW1 with XHungarian commemorative medal for WW1 without X (??? why)Bulgarian commemorative medal for WW1 without X (??? why)For me this bar may belonged to a reserve officer during WW1, there is no Centenary medal. I think it's untracable.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deruelle Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 The other ribbon barIron cross 2nd classMecklemburg Schwerin second clas Military Merit medalHanseatic cross of HamburgRed Eagle 4th classCentenary medalFor me this bar may belonged to a Captain (with the Red Eagle and Centenary medal). If there is no long service medal the explanation is this officer died during the war. RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 How about the big Polizei "penguin?" Does that match any of the types already posted?I've just got these bars made by Godet with SCHICKLE Wehrmacht eagles on the lower one, and another to the same officer with the normal little straight flat kind of eagles, so I guess they must have bought some devices rather than making all their own. But they were still using their distinctive pin and pale gray backing into WW2...which surprised me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hi Rick, Please find the last close up.It's not beautiful but I like the ribbon bar.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 More like Sesame Street's Big Bird than a penguin! I think we should start a thread over in the Third Reich section someplace about ribbon bars with Imperial AND Thrid Reich long service awards. the Imperial ones should come first, but are often last like on yours. I've got quite a mix of them too.OK, I started one. Those poor zinkys have no idea how OUR stuff is. --http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=19290&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
