New Medal Bar!

[Dave Danner]

Do the Hessians tend to put their state's medals in front of Prussian medals of honor? If so, would it be unreasonable to think that this man was a Prussian who was fighting with the Hessians in the East with the Austrians at his side? Is this even a plausible situation? I know the Bavarians put their bravery medals in front sometimes.

This order is correct for a soldier from Hesse or one from Prussia who happened to get the Hesse award. However it would be much less likely for a Prussian to get the Hesse bravery medal than for a Hessian to get the Iron Cross.

Generally, the Kingdoms of Bavaria and Saxony are the only ones who put their own awards ahead of Prussian ones.

By the way, regarding Austrian awards on German enlisted bars, I can add:
