Vizeadmiral Joachim Lietzmann - Spanish Awards
Antonio Prieto replied to Kriegsmarine Admiral's topic in Spain
Yes, I believe that the #1 on the first photo and the breast star on the second photo are the Spanish Order of Naval Merit 2nd Class, white divisionm type 1931-1938 I can't see the crown in the first picture In the second photo I think I see the mural crown, which would correspond to the concession in 1932. This crown would cease to be used in Spain from 1938, moving it through another open royal also known as imperial, which in turn would be used until 1977 Attached the type of 1931-1938 -

EVERT GUSTAV WALDEMAR BECKER (Helsinki, 1840-Rome, 1907) His military career took him to many different destinations. He served in Poland as a sub-lieutenant of the Finnish Guard and goes to Spain to fight in the war of Morocco, where he participates in the clashes of Spanish troops against the Moroccan rebels in 1859-1860. For his bravery on the battlefield Becker gets the Cross of San Fernando He collaborates in Mexico's civil war. In Greece's campaign against the Turks. In Egypt in favor of Ismael Pacha, who names Bey and in Serbia reaches the rank of Major Staff Colonel There are pictures of him in the Serbian uniform, where he can see, among other decorations, the Cross of San Fernando and the Medal of Africa of 1860 Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain more information in Finnish or Serbian (or others) files about this person? -

Antonio Prieto replied to Kriegsmarine Admiral's topic in Spain
At this time, I only found in the Marine Gazette the concession of the Cross of 2nd class to Joachim Lietzmann and Paul Weber in 23.1.1932 I belive that the number 2 are not spanish This is a 2nd Cross up to 4.931. The 1932 model has a republican crown, not a royal crown -
