EK 1914 the "other" iron crosses...

[Chris Boonzaier]

And a look into my family-photos...

This one shows my great grandfather...he was a sailor in WW I.

At his ribbon-bar you can see the EK II and at the third position the FA-cross Oldenburg...another parallel award.

Absolutely fantastic Photo!

Mecklenburg-Schwerin non combatant and combatant . The non combatant is a tad smaller, perhaps just makers? Opinions welcome. Super topic!

Rocky, i'm not sure about the correctness of ribbon on your non combatants cross...correct colors should be:

White/Light Blue colors are typical for either Bavaria or Schwarzburg.
