Türkischer Osmanje-Orden 4. Klasse Kind regards Andreas Thank you very much! The unknown ribbon you left out is the Kriegsverdienstkreuz (1939) 2. Klasse ohne Schwertern I'm pretty sure. How sure are you about the 3 ribbons you identified (can I put these awards in my awards list for Lorey)? And also do you think the Liakat and Imtiaz medals are more likely to be the Silver versions instead of Gold (the Gold versions were pretty hard to get)? Edited April 16, 2018 by Kriegsmarine Admiral

dedehansen Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Hi, I am not 100 % sure, it is only my interpretation, what we need is a Marinerangliste from the early 20s. Maybe someone out here has such a Liste?! Kind regards Andreas
Glenn J Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Andreas, unfortunately the 1922 Reichsmarine Rangliste only lists his EK1 and Dienstauszeichnungskreuz! Regards Glenn

Maybe someone out here has such a Liste?! Kind regards Andreas I agree with your interpretation. It is quite likely Lorey was awarded the Imtiyaz and Liakat medal because he serverd in Turkey during WW1. However do you think it's the Silver or Gold versions?
