Not good sorry.
A US made fake. As Rory says, the Wound badge has no place there.

Original ribbonbars can be found as long as you know what to look for and what shouldn't be there. Fakers quite often try to make a bar more appealing by adding a high end award and other bits and pieces. Very often they make the mistake of making it too good and easy to pick out as the combination of awards doesn't add up.

Beg to differ - in this period Beco catalog the Verwundetenabzeichen is shown in many configurations on ribbon bars - I have here outlined the very combination shown above:
These devices are more commonly seen on buttoniers, but they did exist as shown above. I agree with all else that has been said in this thread.

Thanks Kenneth. You live and learn.
