    Generalmajor Dr.-Ing. Uto Gallwitz (help needed)


    Recommended Posts

    Gentlemen, I need help with the decorations of  Dr.-Ing. Uto Gallwitz, between EK II and Dienstauszeichnung and three medals to the right of the Dienstauszeichnung, but especially the neck order. Could that be something Hungarian? Orden der Heiligen Krone? Or am I completely of course? Thanks!!!
