Deruelle Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Hello, I would like to share with you the Cross of Honour 3rd class with swords. 946 crosses were awarded during WW1. Christophe 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Here is a ribbon bar to one Saxon officer from IR 134. Only 38 Saxon officers received the HE3X (cross of honour 3rd class with swords). Leutnant d.R. Walther Kleeberg shows a nice Frackspange with similar medals on the ribbon bar. Christophe 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deruelle Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Hi Fritz, Yes I have the ribbon bar. I put the medals to show them. The ribbon bar belonged to Leutnant Fritz Richard who died in 1918. Only 2 officers received this combo ; Richard and Kleeberg. Christophe 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
