Scott Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) W-O-W! What a grouping! That's a remarkable medal bar too: Schinkel EKII, all three 'flower' campaign medals, Hungarian (?) medal, two Spanish campaign medal ribbons with a substitute Memel (?) medal, and the Medalla Militar! An amazing find Jacques - congratulations!More pictures please!!Scott Edited December 20, 2007 by Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darrell Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Very nice. A trifecta of Flower War Medals !! Any chance of a reverse closeup of the memel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 YUGOSLAV pilots (?) badge and a YUGOSLAV gold "For Zealous Service" merit medal-- from before 1941?Oooooooooooooooooooowhat Urkunden do you have for all these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darrell Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 What medal is this one? Appears to be the same type as the flower war ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 What medal is this one? Appears to be the same type as the flower war ones DARREL : you're right, there is something wrong with the medals bar evnen though it comes directly out of the family. the second spanish medal ribbon is the same as for the medalla de la campana, but suspends a Oct 38 medal , and there is no entry of the Austria annexion medal within the Wehrpass.RICK: the yugo gold medaille document is dated 4 july 1938, and the official german document is dated 4 nov 1938. The pilot badge attribution is entered within the wehrpass on May 28, 1938I have all the documents, except the Ehrenpokal with was awarded on oct 6, 1940.jacques Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I wonder HOW he got the Yugoslav awards? Some sort of private flight for the King? Unique!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 here is his spanish cross in gold. It is a Juncker manufacture marked "900". He wrote with a charcoal pencil under the hinge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 All of those early decorations... I am surprised to see that he did not get a DKiG by the end of the war. Also, did he start off as an Enlistedman? What was his final rank? Was he wounded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 He enlisted the Army in 1931, Oberleutnant in 1941 and ended the war as Hauptmann. He was instructor after 1941, I guess it is why he didn't get the DK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
