Herr General Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Does anyone know what kind of person this is? bishop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Certainly a clerical person of a sort, recognizable by the collar. A bishop is a good guess since he is wearing the Grand Cross of the Dannebrog order (note that clerics wear the Grand Cross badge around the neck and not with a sash)./Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 another point should be that he must be danish as he's wearing the silver merit cross!!Which is only awarded to danish who already have earned a grade of the dannebrog order.Please, feel free to correct me.Kind regards,Jacky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Jacky,You are correct that he must be Danish since he wears the Silver Merit Cross (the text under the photo is Danish as well).One small correction:The Dannebrog Silver Merit Cross could be awarded to anybody regardless of if they had received a grade of the Dannebrog order or not. After 1952 only recipients of the Dannebrog (i.e. Knights or higher) could receive the Silver Merit Cross./Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
