    Weirdest foreign ribbons on a Third Reich Bar?

    There are the typical foreign ribbons that we see on Third Reich ribbon and medal bars all the time - Romanian, Spanish, etc.

    What are some of the more unusual ribbons that you've seen out there?

    THE weirdest award in the entire world can ONLY be found in German groups, since they (and a random few Austro-Hungarian ex-POWs) were the sole recipients--

    the 1918 Order of Saint/Queen (the name has never been clearly established, even in creation paperwork) Tamara as seen in last place on the three ribbon bars below which belonged to a Baron, captured by the French, paroled to Eastern Front service, and later an R.A.D. officer--

    Originally the unit badge for MUSLIM deserters from Azerbaijani units of the tsarist Russian army, the EASTERN ORTHODOX political "Saint" (reputedly a nymphomaniac serial murderer who made the French fairy tale "Blue Beard" look like a sissy) was revived under the atheist MENSHEVIK government of the Democratic Republic of Georgia (1918-21) for bestowal on GERMAN troops in the Caucasus (that dream unfulfilled in the NEXT war!) fighting their TURKISH allies to keep the Ottoman Empire from grabbing Baku's oil, imperilled by a British force from India-- at the insistence of BOLSHEVIK Vladimir Ilich Lenin up in Moscow.

    Beat that!
