Noor Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Hi all, Today I received this nice ribbon bar and I would like to check with others in regards of the two ribbons. Construction I am familiar with - I have seen same systems before (WW1 era). Underneath the ribbons there is as well green khaki material (can be seen on the edges). Now awards: - Queen South Africa medal (must be awarded with the SA01/SA02 clasp(s) because lack of KSA ribbon) - Could this be Danish Order of the Danneborg? I assume many other awards could fit there actually. I am guessing just most common ones - Serbian Red Cross Decoration? Any other ideas? Also have some of you seen similar combinations before? thanks, Timo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SillyOldGrandad Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The last one appears to be the ribbon of the Militia Long Service Medal but the middle one is an odd one. Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Montenegro - Order of Danilo? Japan - Order of the Rising Sun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete. But in this case it should be on the second position, before the foreign award? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul wood Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Timo if we assume the second is the Dannebrog then the third would be the commemorative for the golden wedding of Christian IX 1892. It would make sense of the order. Therefore a Danish volunteer for the Boer war and there were several foreign volunteers in the British army.

Yes, if the middle one is a foreign award which it is assumed to be. I don't think the middle one is a British award but I don't think it is the Order of The Dannebrog either, the red stripes are too broad for that. Pete.
