    Braunschweig Officer's Medal Bar

    Hi guys,

    I bought this five-placer yesterday at the OVMS Show. Since the Braunschweig Ernst August Cross could be awarded to both enlisted men and commissioned officers, the only way we know this bar belonged to a commissioned officer is by the presence of the Austrian Military Merit Cross 3. Class. I would suspect that this bar was assembled in early 1938, soon after the Faithful Service Decoration was instituted. By 1939, the precedence of the Austrian Military Merit Cross would have been elevated and placed after the Ernst August Cross and before the Hindenburg Cross.

    Best regards,
    Tom

          Thank you, James.

          By the way, is that cross nickel or SILVER?

                You need to quit posting these or you're going to make me start collecting medal bars. I already have enough distractions from my Gablonz focus!

                Just kidding, keep posting these works of art.

                  Thanks for the comments, Dale. I'll save a few bars for you just in case you decide to start collecting them.
