Bulgarian Ribbon Bars.

[CtahhR]

Here is a Bulgarian General's Ribbon Bar. I think it is a great example of their "Order Of Precedence" as it is completely hit and miss.

Top Line

Order "9 IX 1944" 3rd Class
Order "Red Banner"
Medal "For Military Merit"
Medal "For Honorary And Long Service" 1st Class

Second Line

Medal "For Honorary And Long Service" 2nd Class
Medal "For Honorary And Long Service" 3rd Class

(These next two could be interchangeable as they have the same ribbon)
Medal "30th Anniversary Of The Socialist Revolution In Bulgaria"
Medal "90th Anniversary Of The Birth Of Georgi Dimitrov"

Third Line
Medal "20th Anniversary Of The Bulgarian People's Army"
Medal "25th Anniversary Of The Bulgarian People's Army"
Medal "30th Anniversary Of The Bulgarian People's Army"
Medal "For Military Merit"

Fourth Line

Order "9. IX. 1944" 2nd Class
Medal "25th Anniversary Of Civil Defence Of The People's Republic Of Bulgaria"
Medal "30th Anniversary Of Victory Over Fascist Germany"
Medal "100th Anniversary Of The April Uprising 1876"

Fifth Line
Order "Red Banner"
Medal "100th Anniversary Of Liberation From Ottoman Rule 3-3-1878 - 3-3-1978"
Medal "100th Anniversary Of The Birth Of Georgi Dimitrov"
Medal "For Strengthening Combat Co-Operation" (Soviet Union)

Sixth Line

Order "For Civil Valour And Merit"
Medal "For Strengthening Combat Co-Operation" 2nd Class (Czechoslovakia)
Medal "Forty Years Of Victory In The Great Patriotic War 1941-1945" (Soviet Union
Medal "For Strengthening Combat Co-Operation" (Hungary)

Quite obviously if this general were following the book all the Bulgarian orders would be at the top and all the non-Bulgarian medals would be at the bottom and also repeat awards would be side by side.
