Also thank you very very much to Rick who helped me to "read" that bar...... so, owner probably was an Oberst level flak KM officer during WW2? I do my best to find Finnish award roles to germans from the archives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do my best to find Finnish award roles to germans from the archives! Very nice ribbon bar ! Theese bars is not very common , and the 1918 Freedom Cross 4th class has not been awarded in large number (I can mail you the totals if you want) All the best from Sweden Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noor Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 (edited) Thanks for your answer christerd I sent you a pm (I hope I understood how to send them here now ) Yes, it's look like pretty rare combination and also Kiel would be a little hint here as well. Like I said - I love bars with the Finnish/Scandinavia/Baltic connections! Here is one another bar with the Finnish Order of the Cross of Liberty. This time it's looks like more some kind a army official during the WW1 (because Verdienstkreuz für Kriegshilfe) to me or am I wrong?

Noor Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 Here is my today's new arrival. Home made and not so "classical" looking - that's the reason why I got it as well as an example. But what I can't figure out now is the ribbons. 1. EK2 (very weird wrapping - just single white stripe) 2. Flanders Cross??? (missing Hindenburg Cross, so it can't be KVK. Also black is wider) 3. LS award??? Can't be KO. Same time this ribbon is pretty light blue. 4. ????? Now, what ribbon is that? Something from Austria, some Weimar award, etc? 5. Austrian award I am confused - uhh, help please!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev in Deva Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 2. Flanders Cross??? (missing Hindenburg Cross, so it can't be KVK. Also black is wider) Number 2:- Kyfferhauserbund Veterans Service Medal, I think. Kevin in Deva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 EK2, Kyffhäuserbund, long service award, a quite German post WW1 war memorial medal and last but not least: Argonnenkreuz! I guess this is the rarest of this series consisting also of of Verdun, Somme, Champagne... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
