TacHel Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 First of all, judging by the other awards, I'd bet good money the very first ribbon is not for the Order of Social Merite but in fact a baddly faded Médaille Militaire (military medal) ribbon. Secondly, the ribbon immediatly after the wounded insignia ribbon I believe to be for the Syria-Cilicia commemorative medal. Sorry, I am completely unfamiliar with the lower 3...

dedehansen Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks to TacHel and Bison for the fast and explanatory reply. Very appreciated TacHel I agree with you that it is the ribbon from the Military Medal, if you look under the ribbon you can see that it is faded out, Kind regards Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
