Hi all
I have this ribbon bar which came with a group but am unsure of the last ribbon on bar, as the chap did not receive the ISM as I assumed the ribbon to be? Width of ribbon is same as the BWM 3cm.

Certainly looks like the ISM.

G'day Jack

Reg Williams (Reg was a personal friend and is now deceased) in his book, Medals To Australians, 4th edition published in 2000 lists this as the Imperial Service Medal and there would be only one medal with the colour and width placements combination issued, so Id say that it is the Imperial Service Medal's ribbon.

Regards

Phil.

There is a French award with the same ribbon but I'd agree, ISM or ISO.

The second is an interesting early victory medal ribbon afaik.
