I actually had a Militärpass to a NCO who served in Ukraine from 22/6/1918 to 30/12/1918 and received the Bug-Stern. His pass specifically states: "Besetzung zur Ukraine" (occupation of Ukraine). 1
TracA Posted March 23, 2024 Posted March 23, 2024 pinpon590, That is a gorgeous award. Please pardon my ignorance, but could you identify it for me? Is that an "S" mark that I see on the reverse of the ball through which the ring is threaded? Tracy
