    It appears to be an SS ribbon. Try the link below. It leads to a forum that discusses medals, ribbons, etc.

    The left one is the ribbon for the Knights Cross to the Iron Cross.

    The center one ( blue ) is an S.S. ribbon. ( can't find this one )

    The right one is a " West Wall " ribbon. ( helping to build defenses/defend the Normandy/Atlantic coast before invasion)

    In source see item number GMRB-024, it shows first ribbon

    Item number GMRB-012 shows West Wall ribbon with a East Front ribbon

    P.S.

    Found it, and you are correct , a blue S.S. ribbon is a 4-year service ribbon, scroll down in second source.
