    2 Belgian medals (Pro Patria + Commemorative) and maybe a third (possibly French) + a cap badge

    Dear all,

     

    I hope someone can identify these modern medals for me.

    They were in a Belgian lot, So I think they are, although I am not sure.

     

    Medal 1: Text “Pro Patria”. Reverse is flat.

    Medal 2: Text Jusqu’au bout Premier Toujours Reverse 1914-1918 / 1940-1945 with Adrian helmet

    Medal 3: see pictures. I suspect this one to be French. School related?

     

    Finally a cap badge. No clue on this one except it came with the other items.

     

    I hope someone can help.

     

    Christiaan

    Hello Christiaan,

    This one is a medal of the veteranorganisation of the 1st Infantry of the line. In dutch 1ste Linie Regiment. By the way, is a non official medal.

    Must be indeed, as Jef said, a non-official medal from a veteransorganisation of the 1st (Infantry) Regiment of the Line. The medal depicts their cap badge.

     

    Do you have a picture of the reverse of the medal?

    No problem being a non-official medal. A have a lot.

    As requested a picture of the reverse.

     

    Any thoughts on the others?

     

    Greetings,

    Wow, thanks. I really couldn't find these. With the first above I used the term COV instead of CVO which brought me nowhere ofcourse. How should I understand "associative medal" in this case? Organisation connected to the glorification of the Motherland?

     

    Greetings,

    Christiaan, I should say "a medal awarded by a patriotic association"? 

    the medaillion says "Pro Patria"
