Re: Medal For Loyal Service In The Armed Organs Of The Ministry Of Interior.
Here's the first version of the 5 year award. It was awarded for one year (1955) prior to being changed to the medal pictured in Post #1. In 1955 there were only two levels awarded- 5 and 10 year. Both were bronze, with the 10 year bearing a II below the shield and the 5 year bearing a III. As you can see, the medal itself is much larger in size than later versions. In case with ribbon bar.

Re: Medal For Loyal Service In The Armed Organs Of The Ministry Of Interior.
Greg - I have found these early medals interesting from the stand point of the hooking mechanism on the back of the medal, compared to other DDR medals hooking mechanism.

Re: Medal For Loyal Service In The Armed Organs Of The Ministry Of Interior.
Yeah, Ralph. Much more secure than later types, and not unlike the securing mechanism currently used for US medals. I have heard this type refered to as "full closure".
