Kriegsmarine Admiral Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Hello, Did every officer who was awarded the Order of Osmaniye or Medjidie during WW1 have it with the "Swords/Scimitars/Sabers"? Or, was it possible to be awarded these orders without the "Swords/Scimitars/Sabers" during wartime? I am finding some conflicting information regarding these two orders awarded during WW1 to later German Kriegsmarine Admirals. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demir Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 If they actually participated the fight they can have the sabers/swords on their orfers. Otherwise it is in Sultan’s discretion how to award these Orders or medals. Their diplomas (berat) had to be signed bt the Sultan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
