To me, the ribbon underneath appears to be of the EK, 2nd Class. I never saw only the ribbon of the Michael the Brave Order being worn in the button hole. I think it was a much more important order just to symbolize it with the ribbon. Gen. Dénes |

I think you're right. Here is another one: Generalfeldmarschall von Kleist - Michael the Brave 3rd and 2nd class. |
