Utgardloki Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Now searching for him in the forum, I found the thread again with the Hawaii order. There Geißler was als discussed a lot. There is also an Austrian order of the Iron Crown 2nd class, he is wearing below the St. Stanislaus (How could I not see it, it is one of my favourite decorations) Neck badge number 2 seems to be the württembergian Friedrichs-Orden Komtur 2. Klasse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
