the document for "medalla de la campana" is lacking.

There is no LC Panzer badge, but may be he didn't stay in Spain enough long to entitle the badge.

and of course the medals

He was awarded posthumously the:

- Medalla de sufrimientos por la Patria

His family was awarded the next of kin cross.

this is the only pic of him when to the RAD

Hi,

The second medal is the "Medalla Militar", the third is the "Medalla de la campa?a".

Around 100 LC members were awarded this spanish high decoration. I would like to get a medals bar with this decoration.

He was also awarded the spanish cross in silver with swords

Here is an aircaft^picture with an old lady painted on the rear

An NCO with a spanish cross in bronze with swords

Does anybody has a picture showing the "crus blanca" with a cross without swords ?

Up to now the period pics show that there is no relation between the attribution of the "Cruz blanca" and the spanish cross without swords. It could be interesting to see if there is a relation between the cross without sword and the "Cruz roja".

This latest one could wear the bronze cross without swords but the pic is too small to be sure

Another one with the spanish cross bronze with swords and the "cruz blanca"

this NCO wear the spansih cross bronze with swords

This administrative officer also wear the ribbon for the "cruz blanca" and what looks like a spanish cross in silver.
