Crdl Thierry Hello Thierry: I believe that the cross above the EKI on his left breast is Garde Jäger bataillon veteran's cross. I believe that I have seen one in the past with green-enameled arms. A very nice photograph. Congratulations! Best regards, Edited April 15, 2014 by Schießplatzmeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thierry Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Bonjour, Thanks for reponse. The ribbon above the EK-II, maybe Saxe Albrecht Order. Thierry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 On 11/04/2014 at 08:46, Thierry said: Reichsritter des Johanniter Ordens Just one petty addition: His rank within the Prussian Johanniterorden is called Rechtsritter, not Reichsritter. Other than the Ehrenritter, the entry-level who were simply appointed, these received an actual dubbing by the Herrenmeister. The English and French terms for Reichsritter would be "Knight of Justice" respectively "chevalier de justice". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
