Italy - Question on Ribbon bar.

[army historian]

Is this ribbon bar even possible? Libya 1911 - No WW1, Spanish Civil War, Ethiopia 1936-1942, No WW2, served in the Colonies? I also entered this under Axis. Thank George

Appears to be incomplete, possibly the lower half of 4+ rows?

So Ken - since the last ribbon is the volunteer service 1915-1918 do you think, the WW1 ribbons would follow? 1848-1918 Independence, WW1 Medal, and WW1 Victory? Thanks George

Hi,

Last official bar for the Libya Medal was "1931" ... so the absence of WW1 medals is perhaps not too surprising.

Thank you Hendrik - that would explain the lack of WW1 medals. George
