Full Description:
Period: Third Reich era
Awards Represented:
War Merit Cross 2nd Class with Swords – for meritorious military service under combat conditions (instituted 1939)
1936 Olympic Commemorative Medal – awarded to contributors to the success of the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin (instituted 1936)
Mounting: Standard Wehrmacht ribbon bar with field-grey wool backing and a long horizontal pin attachment
Condition: Very good. Minor edge fraying to the KVK ribbon, clear and intact devices, and bright color retention on the Olympic ribbon.
