Ulsterman Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Found it: Weimar era Fire Service Decoration 1st Class-the enamels are missing. see pg.65 of Werner Bergmans' book,"Unsere Bayerische Orden" for the medal bar of KreisBranddirektor Christian Martin.

JBFloyd Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 I hadn't checked Feuerwehr awards, but that brings up Efler's "Deutsche Feuerwehr-Ehrenzeichen 1802-jetzt", which shows it as "Duetcher-Feuerwehr Ehrenkreuz, 2. klasse", 1928-1934. So, first class was enameled, second class was not.Thanks for the memory jog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
