    West Wall Medals in Box

    I have 6 west wall medals in blue LDO boxes, 4 of which are wrapped in tissue paper. I have seen these before in boxes and there are a few other threads about the boxes and what was actually put in them. The medals that are not wrapped appear to be identical, I have not unwrapped the others. Any help would be appreciated.

        These cases i normally only know from woundbadges, although it may not be impossible a LDO manufacturer used them on other awards as well.

          I was under the impression these LDO boxes were used for black wound, RAD Long service and possibly for the westwall and a few other awards.

            According to the 'Uniformen-Markt' 1941: "Karton II, blau" is for Black Wound Badge, Westwall and RAD 2nd. ,3rd. & 4th. grades

                        Thanks everyone for the great feedback and the pics of others. I was sure these were good as I did a little research on the forum before I posted and there were a few other threads talking about the Blue LDO box and what is was used for.

                        I would like to get some ribbon for these, from what I understand it was just laid on top or under the medal just like in RonR's picture. Does anyone know where I could get some original ribbon?

                        Thanks again Brian
