oamotme Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 Gentlemen, I have recently obtained this group of nice miniatures. Can anyone identify the last/sixth award? The combination of life raft suspension and red cross device may indicate some manner of life saving award. The other awards are as follows: Societes de Secours Mutuels / Ministere du Travail et de la Prevoyance Sociale Republique Francaise Academie Devoument National Societe National Devoument et Progres Societe Republicaine d'Encouragement au Devoument Republique Francaise / Medaille du Bien Public Unknown Many thanks Owain 1
Graf Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 It looks like Spain Red Cross decoration, however it is odd with all french decorations, therefore it could be similar french red Cross Decoration as the Spanish one Most of the Spanish red Cross decorations have the typical for the Period crown on top Cheers
922F Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 Given other awards preceding our unknown, perhaps represents a private society [as opposed to a national] decoration. Life ring suspension looks similar to several French regional life-saving awards and the Ottoman Donanma Lane of 1912 [acknowledging Navy development contributions both intrinsic & financial].
