<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 181228, member: 1242&quot;]fastfun1111,</p><p><br /></p><p>The medal was apparently given out to participants in the 28th Bundes Turnfest held on July 20-23, 1900 in Philadelphia! This was also their&#039; Golden Jubilee celebration that year (1850-1900). I really have no idea what it is or was about but may have been an association where Germans from Germany and other Germans that had immigrated to America (or their descendants) held a special Field Day (Turnfest) in different cities each year. The words &quot;Frisch&quot; means &quot;New&quot;, &quot;Frei&quot; means &quot;Free&quot;, &quot;Stark&quot; means &quot;Strong&quot; and &quot;Treu&quot; means &quot;Faithful&quot;. Not sure what NBTA stands for but may mean National Bundes Turnfest Association.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Other, Other Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
