dedehansen Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) In this photograph probably the Württemberg Friedrich Order Gold Medal.RegardsGlenn Thanks Glenn, is in the Militär - Musiker - Almach mentioned which medals he got. I can´t recognize his 3rd award on the bar. But the medal from the Friedrichsorden has a light blue ribbon. This one has side stribes. Could it be the goldene Verdienstmedaille des Kronenordens ? Regards Andreas Edited August 25, 2014 by dedehansen

spolei Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Hello, he was born 1.2.1854 and startet in the army 1870. He died 17.101916 in a hospital in Metz. Ancestry shows a bavarian MVK 2 with crown and swords. On your picture might be a earlier MVK without crown. Please, show us a bigger picture of the bar. He got the silver medal for the war 1870 (non combattant) regtards Andreas
