Long Service Award
Hi Nick.
Here´s a RAD 12years medal with a strange ribbon. The ribbon is in one piece, but check out the threads on the obverse. The don´t show on the
reverse. Any explanation? Greatful for any thoughts.
Best regards
Peter

The 1936 pattern fire cross 1st class which only saw less than a year of issue after being
replaced by a smaller gold framed version worn from the ribbon, maybe somone can post theirs.
The first class was awarded for special merit or acts of bravery whilst at fires.
The 2nd class fire brigade decoration was awarded for 25 years in the service, maybe somone can
post theirs also to complete the fire brigade section.

Not sure I get the meaning of this ?Very naughty to post my photo of the 25 year NSDAP. MIGHT HAVE MORE TO SHARE?
But as you are unhappy with it being in the thread I have removed it. I did send you a PM which has not been read with regards using this picture which you were quite happy to post on a previous thread. Also just to quote you as a reminder.
I thought that you would not mind sharing your photo being one of the many who were asking for such a facility to exist. I was obviously wrong.Might I make a sugestion, that another site be openeded that is read only were there are photos of the known fakes so that one can go and look at the pieces. Thus you would have a thread Eagle Order with the various class's and the fakes known of each class. It would make a very useful research tool. Plus the expanations and points to look for would be readily avalable.

People, In my mind exist a confusion, why in the the long service awards for 40 year appeared the number 25 instead the 40?

I presume you are refering to the Wehrmacht Long Service awards ?
There was no 40 year medal as such manufactured. The 40 years service was recognised by the golden oakleaf bar attached to the ribbon of the 25 year medal.
Therefore the award for 40 years was not another medal but the ribbon bar instead.
