Hi Guys,

It is the air raid protection (Luftschultz) medal(cross) 1st class.

It is a rare one about 150 given out.

Would make sense if it is one a WWI type chain as most of the Air raid protection types were older.

here is one thread on the medal anywayhttp://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=192254

Hi Greg, it is Luftschutz award 1st class. A rare medal awarded only about 150 times.

Cheers, Ade.

What are the other medals on the chain.

If they make sense then it would be worthwile doing some research on the winers of this award to see if you match the chain to an actual person.

Seen this done with ribbon bars right here on the form.

merry X-mas

Here is the full chain. Pretty generic i'm affraid. It could belong
to almost anyone.
