Deruelle Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hi, Beautiful ribbon bars. The third one with the miniature is so beautiful I think you can find the name easily (he belonged to I.R. Nr. 126 with Grand Duc of Baden like Chief of this regiment). If I have the time this afternoon I will see.RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hi Wild Card, I have just seen it, the third ribbon bar with BZ3X and BMV4, the ribbon of the Bavarian medal isn't the same than the miniature. This one has got swords on Bavarian ribbon. Do you think it's a mistake or not ?RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 There's a good chance at ID'ing the 4 bar with Baden OZLX and Bavarian MMO peacetime, but I couldn't find a match on a qucik flip through. The BMV is obviously a 4, but the OZL could be several classes (usually don't see mini oakleaves device even when that was the full size grade), and of course the "lone" W?rttemberg MMO is complicated by returns of Friedrichs.maybe Daniel can sort that out from his work with W?rttemberg.

saschaw Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Great bars, I like expecially the set, but the MMO is war time, just wrong ribbon used. The bar and bar pin are apparently a set and the smaller one has the right ribbon ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 Thank you Gentlemen for your comments and compliments.Deruelle, your observation is correct. I have checked as closely as possible and can say that there is absolutely no evidence of there ever having been a sword device on the Bavarian ribbon on the full size bar; but since they came together, my guess is that they belong together. Saschaw, I am inclined to agree - ?The bar and bar pin are apparently a set and the smaller one has the right ribbon ...?Joe Campbell, you are so right - ?good things come in small packages!? I hope to post a new arrival (small package) within the next few days.Again, thank you all and best wishes,Wild Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Fantastic WC, especially the mini lapel stickpin bar. Only the 4th I have seen and the absolute nicest one yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
