I intended to make my soon-to-arrive Heer EM M36 tunic a model of minimalism, however the lure of the bling is great so instead I've opted to put on the three WWI awards my grandad got. This is where I THINK they should be placed - any advice appreciated:
Imperial EK2 - ribbon in second buttonhole, no gong.
Honour Cross for Combatants (aka Ehrenkreutz, Hindenburg Cross) - ribbon bar above left breast pocket, no gong.
Imperial Black Wound Badge - centre of left breast pocket.
He would have been 41 in 1939, so at least I'll be age accurate.
I also have a tiny little stick pin with miniatures of these three awards on them (about 7mm x 25mm). Presumably this would have been for civilian wear rather than uniform wear?
My old M36 tunic has all of the insignia you describe on it. Use this picture for a reference. 
If there is no EK1, you would wear the wound badge in the middle, as you said.

When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
Thanks Pete.
So if the EK1 wasn't there, would the wound badge take its place or is lower left the standard position for a wound badge? Also I'm guessing it would be a 1918 version rather than a 1939 one. Last thing, is your Honour Cross ribbon on a bar or stitched to the tunic?
I stitched mine to the tunic, as I was replicating Ed Harris' costume in Enemy at the Gate. Strictly speaking, it should be on a bar. I still have some ribbon if you need it. The wound badge goes in the middle in the absence of the EK1. By the way, SOF do a silver WW1 wound badge for £6.99. A blast of black paint and, hey presto!

Nice. Militaria net do the badges in black and Nick Morigi claims to have an original ribbon on a bar. If he's sold it I'll take you up on the ribbon offer.
