H Guys ,
After some useful information regarding the uniforms colour I am asking if anyone has more details on the sash's that he wore , colours and the large stars he also wears on his left and right chest pockets .

The model is a bust by Legends and Lore

Thanks for any help anyone is able to give

Hi Mike ,
Thanks for the link , I have it already but there is no colour pictures !! , on the bust , looking at the box art he has a blue sash edged in yellow/gold? and under that a sash white edged in red .
Not sure if these are right or what they are but from your post at least one would appear to be wrong on the box art , I would be grateful of details of all of them please .
Also he is wearing around his neck a medal on a blue ribbon (MOH perhaps) .
Thanks for ll the help , I just want to get the accuracy for "Old Blodd and Guts" 100% right .

Patton had the following sash's 5 total I dug deeper
Britain Order of the Bath-ribbon red, no other color.
Britain Order of the British Empire-ribbon color, rose pink with gray edges,with gray stripe down the center
Belgium-ribbon, blue moire with a black stripe down the center
Czechoslovakia Order of the white Lion-ribbon, red with white stripe on each edge
Luxembourg Order of Adolphe of Nassau-ribbon,blue moire with orange stripe on each edge
The 2 you need are listed,
I don't have the bust but if you send me a photo of the box art I can tell you the neck order he is wearing
Hope this helps

The order and ribbon Patton wears around his neck is most likely Luxembourg Order of the Golden Lion it would be usually worn with the blue and orange sash he wears.The neckribbon should be blue with orange edges same as the sask. The neck badge is gold-rimmed,white enamel cross.gold leafs between each cross.The center is blue enamel, with a gold lion.
The right breast star looks to be the Order of the Golder lion, silver with white ring gold inscription center same as above.
The left breast star looks to be the Order of the British Empire,silver star center light blue
The medels are to small to see but most are shown at http://www.pattonhq.com/medals.html
Hope this helps
