Well, I would not say it is impossible, practically, for a medical officer to recieve the fire award. I mean, if there is a fire, medics are called in to assist in taking care of wounded etc. Assuming there have been a larger fire, and this man have assisted in a honourable way, he might have been awarded it. Or?
(I am aware that the ribbon bar/uniform on the picture is made up, and do not doubt it, but what I wanted to point out is that I would not say it is impossible for a medic to get the award in certain situations.)
Well, the fact that you point out one of the ribbons that actually fit in did sound strange. I'd rather say, how many medics do really guard the State Frontiers? (that had been a better example of the "made-up"-iness* of the ribbon)
Tal,
The uniforms themselves look ok. It maybe that the ribbons have been added to enhance the appearance. Either way, the are not truly original items but nowadays there are very few uniforms available with the original medal ribbons. Even so, I think they should have done a little bit more research into the ribbons.
