The back.

I am not sure: Does #2 (Spanish MVO) indicate an officer?

Nice little bar!

[Stogieman]

I agree with Bob, the bars from this period are quite colorful to the Legion Condor guys.

Nevertheless, it's quite nice. I still haven't been able to get my hands on one of my own.

First, that medal was the same for all ranks.

Second, perhaps it was a custom in your country to name national military awards with German names, but in Spain the correct name of that medal was (and still is) "Cruz Roja del M?rito Militar", and not "Milit?rverdienstorden".

Just my 2 cents.

I like these bars with spanish ribbons. here is another one with the "Medalla Militar" ribbon.

and a longer one, still with the scarce "Medalla Militar" ribbon.

Very nice Jaques.... second bar a "sew-on" type??

Jaques,

Is that a lifesaving medal ribbon on the long bar next to the EK2?

Yes, it is the life saving medal ribbon bar. this bar was attributed to Hannes TRAUTLOFT

[Paul R]

Thank you! Nothing like a nice named bar!

Not only is it attributed, it looks like you've got the same bar that he was wearing in the photograph. Doesn't get much better than that. The fact that you've got the bar of a RK-winner, general, and fighter ace is just icing on the cake.
