If yes, please share to me the date of institution and rules.if no, i like to see the real condecoration.Thx a lot in advance.AlexandreThe name of the decoration is "Cruz de Guerra con palmas para cabos y soldados" (War Cross with palms for corporals and privates). There was a similar cross without palms that was a lesser award. It was introduced in 1942 and therefore it was not awarded for Spanish Civil War service (1936-1939).Best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
