    Nice pic Gallipolli star

    Got this pic a few days ago.

    Very detailled one. It was made in Hamburg.

    He had the Hamburg Hanseatic cross, Red cross medal and the TWM on non-combatant ribbon (last one on the bar, white with two red stripes)

    The TWM looks like a BB&Co one.

        Agree with the last ribbon is a non combatant Turkish War Medal since he was a medic. I have a similar non-com ribbon bar.

        I can not agree with the star being BB&Co. because the tugra has a hollow area on its left side inside the big circle (the Beyze or Sancak area). No BB&Co. has a half-solid tugra, all known examples have solid, one-piece tugras.

          This looks to be a half-hallow, half-solid tugra as in this example.

              Thank you. Yes IH on non combatant ribbons are not easy to find.
