A bit late reaction, but what I meant with Officers class is the international nomen-clatuur of decorations.Just:Grand crossGrand Commander/Grand officer etcCommanderOfficerKnightMemberaffilated medalsI meant this officer, the grade between commander ?nd knight Not the militairy officer...

Christian Zulus Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 (edited) Gro?es Ehrenzeichen f?r Verdienste um die Republik ?sterreichGrand Decoration of Honour for services to the Republic of AustriaGentlemen,that's my Austrian Award .Well, it didn't receive that Order from the President of the Austrian Republic - I bought an immaculate finished item from the former juweler "Alfred Reitterer" (without engraved name ) -, but it doesn't seem so unlikely, that I will get exactly this order within the coming 5 years .The outstanding Austrian architect Oswald Haerdtl http://www.azw.at/www.architektenlexikon.at/de/200.htm designed all the Austrian awards in 1952: Ehrenzeichen, etc. and also in 1935 the "?sterreichisches Ehrenzeichen f?r Kunst und Wissenschaft".Best regards Christian Edited April 22, 2007 by Christian Zulus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
