    A recent acquisition, given that approximately 8000 Lubeck crosses were awarded, I wonder how many Lubeck crosses awarded to naval members is. I like this bar, it is a shame I will never be able to trace the recipient.

    If I read von Hessenthal right, as L?beck had only one Infantry Battalion, 162 II, the majorit of the awards went to Naval and Marine personnel on S.M.S L?beck. Medical volunteers were also eligible.

    Am I right in thinking that if you were from Lubeck but in an entirely different regiment you could still receive it? In which case, maybe the proportion of naval recipients wasn't quite so high. I suggest in part to the fact that I haven't seen many Lubeck crosses mounted alongside the Flandern cross, I would like to see some more.
