cabbell2207 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hello everyone, I have had this ddr bar for some time know and was wondering who would have worn it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehrentitle Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Most of the medals are Ministry of the Interior service medals, along with a lone Civil Defense medal. So it could have been someone who had a career in the police, fire and/or civil defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasz Gaszewski Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 As members of the DDR uniformed services used to wear all grades of medals received and here you can see only the medal for 25 years of service, the owner of this bar probably had another one with the medals for 20, 15, 10 and 5 years of service. There may also have been a third bar with some upper class medals. The one on the photo seems to be the middle one. A nice item by the way.

cabbell2207 Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Ok I see. Would this also fit into someone in the barracks police? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 How would someone earn all of these different organizational medals unless he served stints with each? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytop Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hi Paul, the medal is for "Treue Pflichterfüllung" (faithful duty), for people serving honorary/voluntary for the Zivilverteidigung, here for now 20 years or more. Uwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
