militaria0815 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Posted April 5, 2009 Very nice bar. Do you yet have his citation? I do not so far, maybe it is still in the family, they will search for it.

saschaw Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 I'm not aware of any citations given to the soldiers (Baden is not Bavaria, those exist) nor can I imagine the family find's anything on it. So here's the entry from Zelosko's vol. 3:

militaria0815 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) Hello!Very nice bar.Congratulation. all the bestNesredepThx for all the congratulations. Although 1282 medals were awarded in WW1 medal bars and medals do not appear very often. One gets at least 10 Bavarian bravery medals ( about 998 awards) before one can find a Baden medal.
