Daniel Krause Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hi Guys,yes, top bar is missing a 25 oakleave to the 1870 non-com EK. I bought this bar years ago out of the "thrash box" of a dealer who ripped the device to sell it separately.BTW, I could ID the original owner; Oberstabsarzt Doctor Bernd Kiesewalter.Best regardsDaniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 There are some interesting medals in there. Have you been able to track down any of the two original owners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulton Palmer Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 There are some interesting medals in there. Have you been able to track down any of the two original owners? No Paul, I just know the medals. Researching is still a blind spot to me. I shouldn't know where to start. Greetings, Poulton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Here are two of mine. Poulton. Hello Poulton; That bar on the left is really great. The swords on ring arrangement on the Herzog Carl Edward medal is a rather uncommon and only came out in 1935! You sure do turn up the bars with rarer medals on them.

N Mühlgay Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Does anyone know whether a second EK II would be given for someone who merited it in combat as well as having an NC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 The quick answer is no. Usually a soldier got either a state medal or a pat on the back for additional bravery. A step up to an EK1 was a bit of a leap the lower ones ' rank, but it did happen. Also, to fill the gap some units gave out Honor Diplomas, which sometimes had unofficial medals with them, much like challenge coins here in the USA today.

ixhs Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I have some of them - i showed a few in the WAF over the last years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Put them here!! PLEASE? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixhs Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) Here a few i found at the WAF again. 1st - a 4 place non combatant bar with silesian eagle (the silesian eagle was also awarded to non combatants) 2nd - a 5 place non combatant bar with RAO4 (i think he got it between 1914/18 because he put it bevor the war aid cross) the "green" decoration was missing - there are a lot of possibilities - swedish, persian, brunswick lifesafing and italian. I like the St. Lazarus so i added a knight. I think the decoration was Zurückgeliefert (retourniert) 3rd - a nice bar i traded with Komtur - he was a 1866 combatant and in his old life reactivated in 1914 - have a look at the RAO4 50 (now i have one more 14 NC bar and Komtur has another "Doc" bar) (i think he got the RAO40 50 at the end of his career) 4 th - a big bar i bought from Thies a few years ago. I think there was a KO4 - somebody added a COMedal and i think there could be a DA25 cross and no 15 years LSC. The rest looks not replaced. I tried to find a recipient but who was he? (May be the KO4 was also retourniert - because of its content of gold) Edited April 19, 2016 by ixhs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
