Is this officer an Iron cross winner? I looked down to his 2nd button on his tunic and it looks like a ribbon. I can not read old German to well but some of the other information in his Soldbuch I understand. Just curious. Larry

the center band of the ribbon looks very dark,perhaps black,so my guess it is the War Merit Cross Ribbon,,,

Is the war merit cross easier to achieve than the Iron cross?
