Noor Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 Hi, Here is my new Dutch ribbon bar with very interesting combination. Story with that bar is that the owner of that, was Queens adjutant, rank Admiral. Thats why great arrey of different high orders as well. Is it possible to confirm it or find out the owners name?
army historian Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 (edited) Noor, The First is the Order of the Lion of the Netherlands; then the Order of Orange Nassau; I don't know the next 4; the Center third row is Belgium Order of the Crown: I do not know the next two: then the Japanese Order of the Sacred Treasure; I do not know the next three; France Legion of Honour; the next blue ribbon may be Portugal Order of the Tower and Sword; the last ribbon is the Order of the British Empire Military Division. Very Very nice ribbon bar or Rack as we call them. Captain Albert Edited July 1, 2010 by army historian

Megan Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 In place of the ??? - I knew I'd seen that ribbon recently and found it last night - I'd say Portugal Order of Merit.
