ccj Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 I would love to be able to find a ribbon bar matching Pohlmann's or close. I like the one I have but it's a bit too large. I assume the bar is as follows: EK2, RAO, Crown Order, Long service, Centennial, ?, ?, Austrian Merit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
