Guest Rick Research Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 From the suspension blur above the Order at his neck, I'd say he is the Catholic version-- Vatican-affiliated Order of Malta. The Prussian Johanniter had no such extra device over their "Pour le Merite" looking Order.Also notice that the naughty man is wearing a ribbon each out of TWO different tunic buttons! :speechless1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
