saschaw Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Mark? The last time I saw that group, it belonged to Stefan. The only Saxon unit that was in Finland were there Karabiner, whose honour chief was the grand duke of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach, which explains the combination of Saxon, Weimar and Finnish awards. I used to have a ribbon bar to a Leutnant/Oberleutnant from the very same unit.
misiu Posted November 10, 2010 Author Posted November 10, 2010 Yes, Sascha I read about se tragic robbery of your medal bars...a real pity and sad sing. Mark? The last time I saw that group, it belonged to Stefan. The only Saxon unit that was in Finland were there Karabiner, whose honour chief was the grand duke of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach, which explains the combination of Saxon, Weimar and Finnish awards.

tyanacek Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Hello Detlef, That is a very nice medal bar. Very unusual to see both the First and Second Class Finnish Medals of Liberty mounted on the same bar. Congratulations! Best regards, Tom
