    Supposedly Missing TWM Bar

    Can anybody advise me on this bar with the missing Turkish War Medal? Do you guys think it is period done or assembled yesterday to fool Galipoli fans like me?

      That is a correct bar. The TWM being a pin back award was also represented by this style ribbon with or without the medal.

        I question why this bar has a EK2 for combatants and a Cross of Honor for Noncombatants. Are the ribbons original and the medals replacements?

          That is actually quite common. The wearer was deployed to the war zone as a noncombatant.

              I considered that but then would expect a Hessian award after the EK2.

                not every hesse got an bravery medal as not every prussian got an iron cross.
                both would be possible.

                  Thank you everyone, without your help I would consider this a proper bogus bar. I will put more photos if I win it!
