    Hi,

    This medal bar came in recently and I would like to know more about it.

    I think that the 3rd, 4th and 5th medals were awarded fot Time of Service in the Army and the 1st is the Polonia Restituta. What are the others? Any tip about when it was made or what kind of guy it belonged to?

    Thanks in advance,

    Douglas.

    You're Welcome Douglas,

    To try and help with your other question.

    The Medal for Merit in Protection of Public Order was awarded to members of the Civic Militia and Security Service. This not being a long service Medal makes pinning down a date harder.

    It was instituted in 1971 and wasn't awarded after 1990.

    Regards Eddie.
