brianch Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hello...I am a collector of Verdun medals and the variations but have recently bought one with a ribbon that I have not seen before maybe someone can throw some light on it please? The ribbon is as old as the medal I believe so would have been bought like it possibly. My feeling is that it may be from USA or a French combattant association or the like. Any help would be very much appreciated and thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Boonzaier Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hi, welcome!! We have a couple of threads on these on the forum and I am very happy we have landed someone new with an interest in them. I would imagine this one is simply a case of an old vet using what he could get? Best Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianch Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hi Chris and thanks for your welcome and comment. I have also seen a Somme medal with this ribbon which makes me think it must be some association or other but exactly which I hope to find out. I also collect award docs etc too as I see you do. I have one printed on the back of a German map! waste not want not and an example of early recycling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
