IrishGunner Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I found this one almost by accident today; I was looking at some sleeve patches - the display was on the ground on a tarp and leaves were blowing all around, covering up some of the items. And then I noticed a bit of color and found this bar - first Armenian ribbon bar I have seen at the flea market these past 5 months. Includes on the left (and highest precedence) the Marshal Bagramian Medal, then the red ribbon - there are a couple candidates on the Ministry of Defense website, but since I don't read Armenian I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get a translation - and then two ribbons for the Service Medals. It's not much, but probably my best find today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Rick... I love it! First I've seen! Can you post a pic of the reverse? Always a good idea when posting ribbon bars... and well... just about anything. Great find! Congrats! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always a good idea when posting ribbon bars... and well... just about anything. Great find! Congrats! Dan Dan, I tried to get a photo of the reverse; my camera and my mobile phone. The lighting stinks today; stormy day. I couldn't get a shot that can really be seen well. The reverse is simple felt; it has some hanging threads as if it just came off a uniform. I've seen officers wearing ribbon bars exactly like this one; probably at least a lieutenant colonel's bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 No problem. It's a beautiful bar nonetheless. Thanks for trying! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
