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.

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.
