Yes, thank you, Megan.

I am looking at the new images in your site.

There may be at least 180 pieces, distributed in 66 crosses, 24 medals, 86 shields of distinction —or of honor— and 4 with other names. These totals do not include those of the British, Portuguese or other states such as Brunswick or Hannover.

Image of the book

Historia de las Órdenes de Caballería y de las Condecoraciones Españolas. Madrid. Ed. José Gil Dorregaray, 1865

Some foreigners recipients can see. perhaps only of the french troops: Switzerland Regiments, italian and german states, some sopanish of the Foreign Legion

You can see the database Leonore, but not swow all the receipts

https://www.leonore.archives-nationales.culture.gouv.fr/

The cross is enameled red when it is awarded for war merit, and white when it is awarded for other services. The ribbon is of red silk with a central white list for the red cross and with the same inverted colors for the white cross.

Thank you again

I believe that the Odagiri Masanosuke, is the Japanese consul-general in Shanghai, during this confilct

Thank you for the images

The first, with the japanese letters (Any can translate?) wear the Cross with red badge

The other with white badge

Thank you

Yes I kown this images. 

The ideal for my work would be to find images where the Grand Cross of the Order of Military Merit could be seen, like this one of General Fujii that I have finally found

The correct name of the Chief of Staff of the 1st Army is Shigeta Fujii not Fuyie. Sorry.

Anyone can identify or know the name of this Japanese general, perhaps one of the decorated in 1907 by King Alfonso XIII after the Russo-Japanese war of 1904-1905?

Among others show a Spanish Grand Cross of the Military merit order with red badge

I'm also looking for images of the following:

General Fuyie, Chief of EM of the 1st Army.

Brigadier General Toyosaburo Ochiai.

Brigadier General Kosuke Ijichi, Chief of EM of the 3rd Army.

Brigadier General Naomichi Osako.

General Nagata, head of the Independent Field Artillery Brigade in the 3rd Army.

Lieutenant Colonel of Artillery, of the General Staff Service Jenjiro Ishiskaka.

Captain of Engineers S. Shibau.
