    Dont look at me, it took me months of exasperation to find out if I was eligible, and I still dont understand the details !!

    Nowadays, to be awarded the "croix du combattant", you must have been cited for action. Participation to several "OPEX" is not sufficient .

    As far as I know, some members of the French fascist organization "Croix de Feu" fought in the Nationalist side. They joined the Spanish Foreign Legion and were allowed to wear the French colors on his Spanish uniforms.

    Perhaps the Vichy government created an award for those anti-communist fighters.

    Best regards
