Hungarian Flight Hours Medals- Question

[gjw]

Hello all, can someone let me know if the ribbons for the above medals are the same or different like the Long Service Medals?

 

If different, can you point me to were I can find the correct ribbons?

 

Many thanks my friends

Greg,

No picture of medals is included in your post.

Hey Gorden, I don't have any yet.  I'm trying to determine what ribbons are correct, so when I do find some, I have the correct ribbon.

 

Sorry for the confusion

Greg, 

 

To my, non-reliable😅, knowledge, they are identical, both in ribbon, and in medal, except for the different writing in the centre, and the jet fighter just below.

Thanks all, I did find the answer I was looking for.

 

Stay well my friends

Good to hear that you are sorted. Lukasz has a ribbon chart which shows them nicely: https://www.medals.pl/hu/hu4.htm

 

The Defence Service Medal is awarded for years of service/flight hours/parachute jumps:

 

40 years/3500 flight hours/3500 jumps - pale blue

35/3000/3000 - green

30/2500/2500 - purple

25/2000/2000 - white

20/1500/1500 - mid-blue

15/1000/1000 - light brown

10/500/500 - yellow

 

All with red edges and a white stripe next to the edge with narrow red and green stripes on it.

 

So plenty for you to collect 🤓

Hey Megan, do you know how dumb I feel!  I forgot about that link you sent me before. Then, bingo, it came to me.

 

Better use my brain before the keyboard next time!

 

Thanks again all!

Don't fret, Greg. As I tell my students, the only stupid question is the one that you do not ask!

 

Now that the marking monster has been slain I shall have more time for medals so shall see about getting my Huhgarian section into better shape. Found some sources for images of this lot, so maybe I'll start with them.

Megan,

 

I look forward to seeing the HuPR section expand! I wish you luck in finding the relative images and information!
