    What medal?

    Just got this photo. I do not recognise the medal on the ribbon. Unfortunately, magnifying does not help much. The back is marked Wien and 1943.
    Thanks for any help.

    Terry,

    It could be Medal for the Crusade against Communism (Romania).

    Cheers,

    Jaime.

      Thanks Jaime. Ribbon seems of an even colour whereas the Crusade ribbon has a pattern...

              Anything specific? I keep looking at it and it looks like there is a small figure on the lower part of the medal...a bird?

                Thought?

                Could it be an Anschluss Medal? The white & black thin edge may be hard to see at first glance as it is a very thin set of lines anyway?

                that said, the other thing that makes it say it isn't is the fact that it is marked "1943" - that doesn't fit with wearing the medal

                  There are some of reasons to identify it as a "Anschlussmedaille Sudetenland" ,I think.

                    Thanks guys. The figure on the medal seems to be at 6 O'clock. The flower war medals men are not.....I remain unconvinced.
