Ordenspange with 1939 Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse Schinkel/Rettungsmedaille für Rettung aus Gefahr 1933/Medaille 1. Oktober

[Shockwave]

Added this ordenspange with an EK2 Magnetic Deumer Schinkel, a rare Life Saving Medal(Rettungsmedaille für Rettung aus Gefahr 1933) and Sudetenland Medal(Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 1. Oktober 1938). Marking on edge of the Life Saving Medal shows a half moon and 835 PR. M.BLN. From what I have read it is quite uncommon to find both an EK2 and Life Saving Medal on the same medal bar. Ron

Hello Ron.
I like it. It's a great combination, and it's in ideal condition.
I have a triple feldspange (ribbon bar) with the ribbons of Eisernes Kreuz 2.Klasse, Ostmedaille, Erinnerungsmedaille für Rettung aus Gefahr. And another style 1957 with four ribbons: Nahkampfspange in Silber, Eisernes Kreuz 2.Klasse, Rettungsmedaille, Eisernes Kreuz 1.Klasse.

I love both.

It is true that combinations with the lifesaving medal are not too frequent.

Thanks for share.

Regards
Santi

Thanks Santi. Please post pics when possible of the feldspange you have. Hoping to come across a feldspange at some point that has both the EK2 and Life Saving Medal. Here is the only feldspange I have with the Erinnerungsmedaille für Rettung aus Gefahr. I like it as it has the West Wall as well and it shows the difference in ribbon colors. These two ribbons can be confused.

Hello Ron. Thank you so much.

The photograph of your ribbon bar with two ribbons is very, very useful for collectors, because you can see those two ribbons together that are very frequently confused (just look at many advertisements from sellers who confuse one with the other).

Today is a very rainy and dark morning, so the photographs I just took are not very good.







The good thing is that when I picked up the ribbon bars in the display case, I remembered that I had others (whose photos I had already uploaded to my threads "My Kaiserreich ribbonbar collection", "My 1957 style ribbon bar collection" and "My ribbon bar collection of german medals for floods and rescue" in the Imperial and Bundeswehr sections of the Forum. So from there you will find some photos taken at the time in better light

By the way, the triple ribbon bar (EK2 1939, Ostmedaille and Life Saving Medal) I had never published it in the Forum yet.

I hope you like them.

Hi Santi. I recently picked up this ribbon bar in the Bavarian style for the Rettungsmedaille. i am showing it beside a regular West Wall ribbon bar for colour comparison. Noticeably more "yellow" Ron
