KONDOA Posted 10 October , 2004 Share Posted 10 October , 2004 In my box of medals and badges acquired since being a mere lad, I today found this little medal with the words French and German Star. It has a red white and blue ribbon but little to indicate what it is for, possibly some advertising trippery for cornflakes or something?? Would like to know if anyone knows what it is??Sorry for the quality of the photo but had difficulty getting a good focus as it is small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staffsyeoman Posted 10 October , 2004 Share Posted 10 October , 2004 From the picture, it looks like a miniature, rather than the full size medal; as worn in mess kit and evening dress. The full size one looks like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
