Wonderful WW1/WW2 11 medal bar, Austrian medical officer

[Rheinmetall]

This is such an attractive and long medal bar that I wanted to share it here. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but based upon the awards present I believe this to have belonged to a WW1 Austrian medical officer who was recalled for service during WW2. It is also neat to see the curvature to better conform to the breast area when worn. My pictures do not do it full justice, however All comments are welcome.

After uploading these first two photos I am experiencing problems getting any further images to upload. Once i figure out why I will get my other pics attached. Stay tuned!

Nice

Nice looking bar, and I agree with you.

About pictures. Try downsize them a bit, maybe that will solve the problem.

Bears all the hallmarks of a piece made by am-militaria in Austria.

Sorry but no, but this was a direct veteran purchase here in the US over 30 years ago.

Nonsense

100% correct on medal precedance
100% correct on consturection

This is exactly what would would expect to see on a carrer AH Medical Officer who started his service before WWI and into WWII as well.


The am-militria put together would not get the tri-folds correct (try is someday very hard to recreate) and would of put a cheap Karl Troop Coss or a Long service decoration on as well and most likely an IC II as eye candy

Thank you byterock and all others here who recognize and appreciate this for the gem it is.

That single ridiculous statement is a good illustration of why nice pieces are not shared as often as they used to be on our forum. At least knowledge will always overpower ignorance!
