ostprussenmann_new Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) WW2 MEDAL RIBBON BAR. MILITARY CROSS , G.S.M WITH M.I.D & WW2 MEDALS . It is supposedly from a Royal Engineers Grouping Any additional information would help if Ribbon Bar is identified. It is part of my 11yr olds Son’s Bday present and I don’t know much about UK Militaria thanks in advance Edited October 28, 2019 by ostprussenmann_new Picture edit
Wessel Gordon Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Top row: rightmost ribbon: 1939-1945 Star; Bottom row, left ribbon: Africa Star; Bottom row: second from left Ribbon: Italy Star Bottom row: third from left ribbon: Defense Medal Bottom row: rightmost ribbon: War Medal 1939-1945 Start with the link below and work your way up. You'll see the ribbon corresponds till it gets to the uppermost right on the top row. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Medal_1939–1945 Kind regards, Wessel Gordon I can supply pictures of all 9 ''British campaign medals'' from my collection if you want but in practice the most awarded was 6 with clasps for the other three if the soldier served in all the theaters covered by the 9 campaign stars.

Weasel thanks for your response. the first ribbon is the military cross and the second is the General Service medal with palm for being mentioned in dispatches. Is there anyway to put a name to identify who wore this ribbon bar? Edited October 29, 2019 by ostprussenmann_new
Wessel Gordon Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 I'm not sure, maybe the researchers on this group can help you with that.
