As one of the founders of www.medalj.nu and the owner of the domain, I'd like to clear up any misunderstandings and keep you all up to date. We chose to put the site on hold as it was just a too labour intensive task to administrate. Our original and main objective was always to show the correct order of wear on Swedish military uniforms. It grew into foreign and international orders, decorations and medals and when we expanded the admin team an immense number of historical medals were also added. This was excellent for the website, but also caused a bit of a flurry as our main objective required us to check the validity of each and every addition and keep the site simple as a tool for uniformed personnel. The costs of maintaining the website eventually became too high and the technique behind it required a substantial update. Two of our admins has indeed passed away. Rolf Hertler in 2018 and PeO Sandberg in 2013. They are sadly missed. However that has nothing to do with the closing of the website. We still own the domain and the content is saved, so you can be assured that it will eventually turn up again in some form.

Here?s another one. At the moment rather inactive member of the Swedish Order of Freemasons, following the XI-degree Swedish Rite used in Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and northern Germany.
