Deruelle Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hello everybody, I've received today this ribbon bar. Not very impressive but I think a ribbon bar for a pure prussian officer.Note that this officer received the RAO4 or 3, the KO4 or 3 and the DA 25 and Centenary medal.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 The back. Maybe the green is for J?ger. Rick has probably the solutionChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Even if we had the Hamburg roll done, like you say-- it is a pure Prussian bar for an Oberstleutnant (at the time) so no way to pick him out of all the others with no other known awards. It's just a nice bar to somebody who was probably an obscure Regimental Commander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I don't know if other had the same combination but Oberstleutnant Otto Bredt, Komm. RIR 239 had the same with an additional order BZL3aXEl, awarded on 17. Februar 1916. If the Hamburger was awarded some earlier and the bar pre-dates the Z?hringer ... ?Deruelle, I almost bought the bar, too. You're a lucky guy I wasn't in mood ... ;o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Take a look at the back of the last ribbon... looks blueish on the scan posted. Faded Hesse ribbon?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
