All, Can anyone confirm and provide award dates for Grand Cross MFKO to the following: Karl von Baden (1832-1906) Wilhelm von Baden (1829-1897) Max von Baden (1796-1882) Wilhelm von Baden (1792-1859) Francois-Joseph Lefebvre Duc d'Danzig Nicholas I Tsar of Russia Thanks, John

All, I was wondering if someone in the military received this order, did they receive the military division of it? More specifically, if it was received for war service, either gallantry or in the case of military leaders, outstanding leadership in war, instead of for length of service in peacetime. This would also include non-Belgians. John

All, Does anyone know what type of citations Karel Hora received for his Croix de Guerre. In Geoffrey Bogga's La Legion!, it states that he received 7 or his CdG TOE, 5 for his CdG 39-45 and 2 for his CV. Just curious if these were palms or stars? John

All Does anyone know if either of these men received any other awards? Jozef Pialucha Polish Air Force James J Reardon USAAF John

Is there a list of recipients out there? I've seen a breakdown by nationality, but not much else. John

All, I saw a couple of illustrations in the Geschichte des Grossherzoglich Badisch Leib-Grenadier Regiments 1803-1871 on Google books and am interested in their career highlights, Awards, etc. They are: GL Stockhorn von Starein this was hard to read in the books script, it ould be wrong GL Eugen von Freydorff Thans in advance.

Hureau de Senarmout, Alexandre Antoine Comte de Lariboisiere, Jean Baston Duc d'Danzig, Francois Joseph Lefebvre and von Thile, Adolf Eduard Looking over the past posts I was wondering which Baden princes, with the exception of those already mentioned, receieved the BV1 or BV2? Thanks again, John

Saschaw' In addition to D'Auvray, could you please check if Count Molitor, Gabriel Jean Joseph, Marshalof France also received the BV. John

Saschaw, Thanks for the reply. Dovre might be found as Graf D'Auvray or something like that. He was in Russian service during the Napoleonic Wars. Hope you are able to find him. John

All, I hope someone can help. I am looking for award dates for the WMV to the following: Alexander I Tsar of Russia Nicholas Nicholaivitch Grand Duke of Russia Alexander Prince of Wurttemburg Eugen Prince of Wurttemburg Paskevitch, Ivan Radetzky, Josef Johann Volkonsky (Wolkonsky), Petr Shuvalov, Pavel von Toll, Karl Wilhelm Thans in advance. John

All, Could someone provide the award dates of the St.Heinrich's Gold Medal to the following? Friedrich Baumann Friedrich Haugk Georg Delling The time period would be 1848-1875. Thanks in advance. John

Saschaw, Thank you again for the award dates. Unfortunate that the book does not list by grade. Here are a few more that I am interested in. I'm not sure if they received the BV1 or not. KARL Friedrich Gustav Wilhelm Maximillian von Baden Gustav Friedrich von Beyer Johann Baptist Lingg von Linggenfeld Heinrich von Porbeck Ludwig WILHELM August von Baden Friedrich Karl von Tettenborn Thanks again. John

All, Looking past threads I found reference to 4 awards to Russians in the period 1902-1904. Does anyone happen to have any further info concerning these awards? John

Saschaw, Many thanks for the information. If possible, could you please provide award dates for the following: GFM Gebhard Blucher Friedrich Graf Kleist von Nollendorff Albert Kronprinz von Sachsen Also, does your source include all recipients of the BV1? Thanks in the advance. John

arb, Thank you very much. I have been looking for them a long time. Thanks again. John

Thanks Komtur. Does anyone know have any information concerning the other 15 recipients from 1866? John

All, Over on the Werhmacht forum there is an old thread that references a garrison official with a MVK among others. The man was Garrisonsverwaltungoberinspektor Seichter in 1900 and he was a recipient of the GMVK. Since this was before WWI and he was not one of the colonial MVK recipients, wouldn't this mean he was one of the 16 MVK recipients from 1866? Please let me know. John

Thanks Bernhard for all the help. All, I understand that there was one person that held the following combination: SH3, SHgm, SHsM. My question, how many SH3, SHgM recipients were there? John

Josef, Do you have statistics as to how many MVK2's were awarded in total and how many went to non-Austro-Hungarian personnel? John

All, Does anyone have the award dates of the BV1 to the following recipients? Wilhelm Prinz von Preussen ( Kaiser Wilhilm I) Friedrich von Wrangel Kronprinz Friedrich von Preussen Friedrich Karl Prinz von Preussen Albrecht von Roon Friedrich Franz II Grossherzog von Mecklenburg-Schwerin August von Werder Thanks in advance. John

Thanks Bernhard. I look forward to the additional information concerning the higher classes. Also, could you confirm an award of the St. Henry to Boris III of Bulgaria? John

All, Did Ernst II of Saxe-Altenburg, Carl Eduard of SCG, and Wilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar receive the Saxon Order of St. Henry? Also did any other Saxon dukes receive it? John

Rick, I am wondering if you could clarify something. I have seen references to the Albrechtsorden Grand Cross and Grand Cross with golden star, both with and without swords. Was this a higher class and are there separate award numbers? John
