    Recommended Posts

    with the Bulgarian commenorative medal awarded in the 30's?

    I have a bunch of papers for agerman NCo who served in the Bavarian 6th and 16th divisions... never saw bulgaria in his life... and was able to apply for it against the issuing and buying fees.

    Did the bulgarian govt get into the medal selling business?

    Best

    Ahhhh, but these were OFFICIAL. I've got a Hungarian one for a guy who never served outside of France.

    The only one with real "had to be there" requirements was the Tyrolean one.

    The other weird thing is that while the OTHER Central Powers magnanimously proferred their medals to all their former allies, the cheapskate Germans did NOT reciprocate and offer theirs to their old comrades in arms. There were some individual exceptions (Hindenburg Crosses sometimes appear in senior Hungarian officer groups), but NOT "apply and its yours" like the Austrian, Bulgarian, and Hungarian WW1 commemorative medals.
