webr55 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 That's a great bar with the Marianer-Kreuz! I see no problems with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Me neither, aside from the ratty backing, which appears to be Luftwaffe badge cloth.The 1908 and 1912/13 are reversed from normal precedence, but may be the wearer's opinion that the Balkans mobilization counted as a "campaign" even with no action, higher than the commemorative 1908 jubilee.

Stogieman Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Correct mounting precedence for an Austrian Awards group, post 1935 style. Correct pieces, but a little unusual with no LS Cross given the Jubilee Medal and WW1/2 service.... but I think it's ok anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Danner Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Correct mounting precedence for an Austrian Awards group, post 1935 style. Correct pieces, but a little unusual with no LS Cross given the Jubilee Medal and WW1/2 service.... but I think it's ok anyway.The lowest class of the Milit?rdienstzeichen f?r Offiziere, as in use from 1890 to the end of the Empire, was for 25 years. The three classes were 1st Class (50 years), 2nd Class (40 years until 1913, and then 35 years) and 3rd Class (25 years). This officer was not likely in long enough to qualify. He probably came in just in time to qualify for the 1908 cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Shouldn't this group have an Austrian WW1 Commemorative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Yes, one would suspect that....... but not unheard of when the Honor Cross is here. If he had a Hungarian, Bulgarian and no Austrian, I'd tend to be very suspicious. But with the Honor Cross.... that could simply be a choice.

Ulsterman Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Or he could have been a Sudeten German. @ 1939+ by the Flower war medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
