    Default 2 Medal Bars for review

    Hello, I don’t collect Luftwaffe items or Medal Bars, so would appreciate any information you can give on these two Bars. On the longer Bar, what is the ribbon 2nd from left? Also, how many years does each Luftwaffe long service ribbon represent?
    Are both Bars original? Reasonably confident the longer one is, but I’ve never seen the metal backing on the smaller example before?
    Thanks in advance,
    Colin

    Both medal ribbon bars look like genuine bars to me Colin.

    Your longer bar has the EK2, The WW1 Military Merit Cross for Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Honour cross with swords, 2 Luftwaffe Long service medals...First will be for 4 years service and the second for 5-12 years service. and finally the Czech medal with Prague bar.

    Short bar is EK2, Hamburg Cross and Honour cross with swords.

    All the best

    So Colin, here are a couple of medal ribbon bars.

    S&L first taken from their 1939 catalogue followed by the Schickle Page Extract.
