    Darrell,

    Very impressive WW1 bar! I bet that it weighs a couple of pounds! Can you imagine wearing that all day!

    What is the price tag on the bar?

    Had the "SOLD" sign already on it. I would imagine for something like this a $G or two I'm sure :unsure:

    Go for it, Darrell! That bar could put you on the slippery slope for Romanian medal bars...! ;):D

    Yeah .. just what I need. Out of the blue I bought a WW1 Greek victory medal today ... don't know WHAT caused that :speechless:

    Would it be correct to say this group was to an army doctor who saw quite some service in his day ? I seem to recognize most of these awards but am still lacking a good reference work on the subject of Romanian pre-ww2 awards ... any suggestions as to what would come in handy in that respect (in English, French, German, ... but not in Romanian) ?

    "An" army doctor - yes. "The" army doctor: lt. (rez) medic Mircea Bruteanu.

    Wow Dave... exact same bar as in that thread. The site I got the pictures from said it was SOLD. So I assume the guy on WAF is the new owner :cheers:

    Hi Guys,

    Actually.. 'no'..... I'm the one that traded it to Barry at e-Medals.. I need some Jap orders to complete a general's uniform display and this was one of the trade items.

    I don't know where it 'lives' now.... but it was a very very nice bar.....

    Cheers

    Not sure... but the way this stuff comes and goes... you will probably see it again... unless it goes into one of those 'black holes' that closet colletors have....

    I loved the bar... but it just didn't fit into my collecting area... I had originally wanted it for a future 'one of these days when i can find one' Romainian generals uniform displays.... but once it was id'd... I knew it was not the right bar (I'm kinda 'anal' about details ).....

    Cheers

    There were actually three medical officers decorated with the Order of Michael the Brave in WWI: Lt. Romulus Popescu (1.10.1916), Slt. (rez) Mircea Bruteanu (11.11.1916) and Lt. (rez) Constantin Pop (7.6.1917).
