    Here we have a silver plated bronze medal with blue enamel trim. The ribbon shape and colors are Weimar Era German as is the athlete portrait. The reverse is inscribed “J.G.D.S. MILWAUKE (with only one E) Juli 1931 Ringen 2 Pr.” meaning that this is a second place award. My question is what do the initials stand for?
