Magician Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) Here is another fantastic medal very rare to find with it's original box. It's a SILVER Cross of Merit for Military Chaplains II. CLASS. Inside of the box you can see mark to who it was awarded: Ivo Robert Nitz Edited September 29, 2009 by Magician
Guest Rick Research Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Father Nitz does not show up on any of the random K.u.k. Rank Lists that I have, but then he was probably a war's duration volunteer. I wonder if the Kriegsarchiv in Vienna has Belohnungsanträge for this Cross?
Iver Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Hi Matej, welcome to GMIC The cross is marked with a star (I have seen more photos), that indicates a later period of war, also the material of box indicates the same... And... he was surely not awarde in the first year of war (have looked in Ehrenbuch der O-U wehrmacht )
Magician Posted September 30, 2009 Author Posted September 30, 2009 Father Nitz was found in war archives but I still haven't received it. Will inform you when I get info.
