Smile Turkish medals

Hello all!!
I know that this topic doesn't refer to an aviator. But I believed somebody could help me in my curiosity.
In the attached photo a military Turk, Venezuelan, named: Rafael de Nogales Méndez.
Are you able to identify each one of the recognitions and medals in his uniform?
Some comment on the suit and dress? Can you identify their range?
Any comment will thank.
Greetings!!
Dario

Hello Dario,

on the left down you can see the War Medal (called Star of Gallipoli by the British and Eiserner Halbmond by the Germans).

You can also try to ask here under "Medaillen"
Neue Seite 1

or another of the Internet collectors.

Thumbs up Thanks!!

Hello Hannes
Thanks for your answer to this thread.
Extraordinary web site the recommended one. With excellent images. Thanks.
In this web site I found what it seems to be the bar of medals of Nogales, but unfortunately for me, I cannot translate from the Turk.
Perhaps the bar could help to identify others of its decorations.
Greetings!
Dario
