Stogieman Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Ha Ha, we've sucked in another Imperial victim...... errrrr I mean a new Imperial collector. The slope is very steep. The slope is very slippery. There is no bottom! Enjoy our ride!
Bob Hunter Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 ...and you need to reverse the medals on the bar. As they are now the reverse of both medals are facing front.
CHRIS W Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 ...and you need to reverse the medals on the bar. As they are now the reverse of both medals are facing front.The Allgemeines Ehrenzeichen is mounted correctly.Chris
Bob Hunter Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 (edited) It does really depend on the way the wearer wanted it mounted and the regulations were given a nod and a wink. Here are some examples of both medals mounted. Edited January 29, 2006 by Bob Hunter
Paul R Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 I have never seen a War Merit medal with that ribbon!?! You have the best stuff

Bob Hunter Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 My apologies Ralph. I don't usually do that without attribution. I don't recall how I came by your bar on the blue background. Anyway, the bar I had intended to post as an example was this one.
