Well here's an older photo from my archive. Part of my old Saxony collection.

Here's the ribbon bar of Saxon (and then WW2) General Stengal. Ted has this one now.

A simple bar worn by a brave Saxon after 1934 who was awarded the EK2, silver medal of the Military Order of St. Henry, the Friedrich-August and the Frontk?mper-Ehrenkreuz.

What would be the rank list abbreviation for the silver and gold medals of the Military Order of St. Henry?

These two bars might look as they could have belonged to the same man at different times, but they came from quite different sources.

When I posted them on the WA forum, Daniel Krause offered the explanation that the longer bar may have belonged to an NCO from a technical branch who served with a W?rttemberg unit and later received his Saxon awards after being promoted to officer status.

[David Gregory]

The colours of the sewing threads used on the back of the longer bar shows a certain attention to detail.

Great Bars Gents!

Alas...i have no saxon ribbon bars as yet, but have several medalbars.

Stogieman, the post #29 where you have General Stengel had you noticed that his Generals collar tabs are on backwards?

It looks rather strange....Wonder how this would be ???

Cheers Gents

Hi Paul, couldn't tell you why that is, but if memory serves they were "added" by the photographer when he was promoted. Ted could tell us for sure but I think he's in hiding at the moment!

[Bob Hunter]

I rounded up a few more Saxon stragglers...
