Daniel Murphy Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Joe, What is the writing on the veterans medal or can you post a close up of it. The oddest thing is that it looks like it is on '39 EK2 ribbon.Dan Murphy
joe campbell Posted March 2, 2006 Author Posted March 2, 2006 dan-thanks for your comments.on the wreath is EHREN KREUZ DER FELD ARTILLERIEand on the arms ( 9 and 3 ) PRO ET GLORIA PATRIA.i had the same question regarding the ribbon,but it does have a white thread border, not consistentwith the EK ribbon. the person selling it knew NOTHINGabout the group, so i had my mentor take a peak:his comment was that it was a fairly unusual veterans pieceand that the ribbon was consistent with a veterans group.the material of the third ribbon also has a texture that i'venot seen in '39 EK ribbons.wish you could see it in hand. it's a sweetie!hope this helps.joe
Stogieman Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Neat little bar to an Officer Joe. Not a Vet's piece I've seen before!
