a 1914/18 Combatant’s Cross of Honor, was instituted in July 1934 by von Hindenburg (resulting in its erroneous designation as the "Hindenburg Cross") to recognize service in WWI. It ranked beneath bravery awards but above other service and campaign awards. A 1 1/2" square, stamped steel award with a bronze wash, it takes the form of a cross Patté with a circular laurel leaf wreath to its center encompassing the dates "1914" and "1918" and with swords emanating between the cross’s arms, indicating a combatant’s award. The reverse is plain. It is suspended from its original ribbon in narrow black-white-black-red-black-white-narrow black.
