    Cool... That's a first for me. I would think he had to be a "frontline" combatant in 1870-1 to get an EKII. I wonder what he did in WW1, he was too old to be a medic... Landwehr medical officer maybe?

    That's a pre-World War round bronze Red Cross Medal, so this could date 1900 or so.

    Very unusual way to mount up the 21 years service brooch, using the ribbon but no pendant! :cheers:

    Isn't the last ribbon a ribbon for something from Nassau?!

    The ribbon may be for the 1909 "Erinnerungsmedaille" from Nassau OR Prussian's long service award Ist class. Hard to tell on a last place in a Prussian bar - but was the Nassau medal awarded to persons who were NO former Nassauian NCOs? I think he should have the Nassau 1866 medal too, to wear the 1909 medal. I'm not sure, as both are not too common on medal bars ...

    :rolleyes:
