    Unknown Weimar(?) ribbon

    Just scooped this one up on eBay...



    Anybody have any guesses as to what the third ribbon [from the left] might be? Looks like the Treue dem Regiment ribbon that's been posted here previously, but in different colors.

      dark blue is faded out to grey.
      This Treu dem Regiment / Treu dem Bataillon crosses were worn on different ribbons according the Branch.
      The colors here are for Artillery, Engineers and technical Branches.

      Best regards

        Excellent! I had been wondering what the different colors of that ribbon signified, but I hadn't seen enough to pick out the pattern yet.

        Of the other color combinations, which ones were associated with which other branches?

        Thanks,
        --Chris

          ouch!
          there are at least a dozend different ribbons for these crosses.
          I´m still figuring out this. So show me pics of this kind of ribbons and I will try to answer.

          Best regards

            I don't really have any handy beyond this one, but I'll make sure to pester you should any more come my way.

            Do they appear to be tied in any logical way to waffenfarbe?

            Thanks,
            Chris

              I did not see any pattern or logic behind the ribbons.
              Sometimes it happened sometimes not.
              I will see to sort some out and post here.

              Best regards

                Is there enough of a pattern to at least be able to definately say that ribbon X appeared on decorations for Y branches?

                  Here I listed some of the Treu dem Regiment / Bataillon ribbons which I could properly ID from existing medal and ribbon bars.<O></O>

                  Last 2 ribbons are also something like this but until now unknown to me.
                  There should also be a cross “Loyal to the Air”; according that crosses for nearly all other branches are existing I assume that also the Air force had one. But until now I could not confirm this.
                  Who has more? Please show Yours.

                        Here's a Treu dem Regiment I've seen on ebay:




                        Naughty: Treu dem Regiment and Hindenburg! Any idea what the 2nd, 6th and 7th ribbon might be? 2nd: Maybe a faded Friedrich Order? 6th: Maybe Hungarian? 7th: Faded Crown Order?

                        Regards

                          I'm thinking faded Friedrichsorden for #2, Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander for #6 (thanks Rick), and ???

                            Ahh, St. Alexander, right! So the last one might be Bulgarian as well, maybe a faded Order for Bravery?

                              What color is the valor award supposed to be?
