    Recommended Posts

    Hello Guys,

    Im trying to compile the awards of Edmund Glaise von Horstenau in your time with Austro-Hungarian Army.

    Im specifically interested in decorations marked by the red circles.

    Can anybody help me to identify them?

    I believe that the second from top to bottom is a Leopold's Order award, if yes which class?

    Thx in advance

    Cheers

    Hi Alex,

    Starting from top to bottom, the first one is for sure a Swedish Sword's Order (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Sword), the second is a Bulgarian Order of Military Merit ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Military_Merit_(Bulgaria) ), the third one a hungarian Order of Merit ( http://www.axishistory.com/index.php?id=4260 ) and the last but not least is a very likely, I am not so sure, a Polish Order (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Polonia_Restituta), since it seems unlikely that Polish officials would award a German or Ex Austria-Hungarian subject with a Polish order, but you never know... :whistle:

    ciao,

    Claudio
