Christian L Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 this very well worn ribbonbar looks very good to me - but i have a few problems in iding the ribbons, as there are no devices on.so my guess would be:1.) ek 22.) nco plm (so made it to officer during the war)3.) house order of hohenzollern with swords4.) saxonian albrechts order5.) hessen bravery medal6.) long service decoration7.) centenial medal8.) kyffh?user medalam i correct on these?christian
David Gregory Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Christian,If there are no devices, might one of the first three have been for the Milit?r-Ehrenzeichen or Kriegerverdienstmedaille (but would this also require a colonial award?)?The fourth ribbon may also have been for the Albrechtskreuz, in which case it might be an NCO bar after all.David
Guest Rick Research Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 No way to tell if he was an officer or NCO, now. That's certainly an extraordinary wartime bar that the cheap owner squashed a 1920s Kyffh?userbund ribbon onto.
Stogieman Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Pretty darn nice ribbon bar. I'd think NCO/Other ranks for sure. I'd agree with the GMVK, but not the PCOwX.... I'm thinking MVK 1. or 2. Klasse as more likely. Just beautiful! Congrats!
Christian L Posted April 12, 2006 Author Posted April 12, 2006 thanks a lot for your replys!was the mvk often awarded in during the war?christian
