IrishGunner Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Created in 1968 to honor the remaining living veterans of WWI; only one class "Knight". To be eligible, a veteran have had to serve in combat for at least 6 months, have been awarded the War Merit Cross (or have been eligible for the award). The last "cavaliere" died in 2008 and the order abolished in 2010. Ordine di Vittorio Veneto, cavaliere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
