Chris Boonzaier Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 The buttons are Bavarian... can not make out the emblem on the boards.... can anyone guess the first medal?
Bayern Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Offizierstellvertreter with uniform of the first year of WW1 ? bright lace on collar and SBs ,the monogram perhaps the W crowned with the Imperial crown , BIR number 6 Kaiser Wilhelm konig von Preussen . no Bavarian Borte on collar
The Prussian Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Hello! To me it´s really a Festungsbau-Offizier: http://www.kammerbulle.de/html/namenszuge.html (scroll down to "Festungsbau-Offizier) The ribbon probably is red or green with dark stripes (maybe yellow stripes - they appear dark!) Maybe Friedrich-Kreuz für Kämpfer from Anhalt https://www.ehrenzeichen-orden.de/deutsche-staaten/friedrich-kreuz-anhalt-1914.html or Militär-Verdienst-Medaille Lippe-Detmold https://www.ehrenzeichen-orden.de/deutsche-staaten/militar-verdienstmedaille-mit-schwertern-1914-2-pragung.html Maybe he served in a bavarian unit and he was not bavarian born or bavarian citizen!

Chris Boonzaier Posted August 4, 2020 Author Posted August 4, 2020 Ahhh... yessss... possible he is not Bavarian at all... he has the MVK after the EK which is unusual for a wartime bavarian!
laurentius Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 But that leaves the question, what's in the first place? Looks a bit blue. My guess would be something Wurttembergian.
