[Andrew Harris]

Hello, guys.

It's very rare photos & I couldn't find any thread with them, so I started a new one.

Post here your RKB photos!

Here are two of mine.

First one is the RKB veteran wearing "Reichskolonialtagung des RKB in Wien 1939" tinnie, NSDAP Party pin & 5-place medal bar:

1. TR. Honour Cross for combatants.
2. Bavaria. Ludwig Cross.
3. Bavaria. Jubilee Medal for the Army.
4. Colonial Service Medal. ---???---
5. Bavaria. Military Service Medal. ---???---

As far as I know, colors of the hatband and edging were:

- white for East Africa
- blue for South West Africa
- red for Cameroon

Edging on the hat of the first veteran is of white color.
Edging on the hat of the second veteran is probably of blue color.

I would say Medal No. 5 is the Bavarian Long Service Medal.

Two great photos by the way.

Kind regards

Hello, Pierce.

Thank you.

I mean the same, but I named it a little bit wrong...

Photo of the medal was taken from the www.
