Jacky Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hi Stijn,This question should be placed in the imperial German thread, as this is the saxon Order of Albert.If you do a little google on the english name, you will find many pictures of this beautifull order.But also this site gives a good number of hits!Kind regards,Jacky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stijn David Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hi jacky, Thanks for the fast answer, and now we go towards a more difficult one =>What is meanth with the "Avanti Orden". This award is to situate between 1940-45 and was awarded towards German soldiers, however it was not a German award. What was it then?

Herr General Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Wasn't Avanti ( meaning forward ) an italian fascist slogan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerd Becker Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Avanti orden sounds like a german nickname for an italian order or medal. I think, i have heard it before, but don?t remember where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
