      What a shot. That's a very sensible way to mount ribbons. Looks like you can upgrade the bar without having to have everything remounted/ moved along and reconstructed.

It may be worn from 1st April to 31st September each year by men serving (Training) in the following areas.........USA, Canada, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Turkey and Southern France. It was worn by all branches of the Bundeswehr.

                                This a very interesting set of photos, regarding the funeral of Generalleutnant Hyazinth Graf Strachwitz von Groß-Zauche und Camminetz, a Diamonds winner.

                                I can't tell if that RK on the pillow is his '57 edition or wartime..
