Italian Order of the Crown

[laurentius]

Dear fellow collectors,

I have a couple of questions regarding the Italian Order of the Crown. Was this award given to Germans fighting in Spain prior to WW2 (like the medal of valour on blue ribbon) and if so, did the rank of the recipient have any influence on the class of the Order that was given? I know there were several Germans who received an Order of the Crown between 1933 and 1939 but I wonder if this was for general merit or for actions in Spain.

Kind regards, and thanks in advance, Laurentius

Hi, look - in this link

- in this link are all awards given to pilots of Condor Legion, there is no mention of awards given by the Italians, it was probably possible, but sporadically given merits as part of cooperation merits, I think..

Regards
