Hello,
Here is some info that many off us never have heard off : Did you know that before the Oak leaves towards the famous " Pour Le Merite " order where instituted on 10.03.1813 it was possible to receive 2 or even 3 PLM and wear them at the same time on the uniform !!!!!!
for 2 awarded PLM's one was worn around the neck ( usual place ) and the second one was to be worn trough the buttonhole => offcoarse with the institution of the above named Oak leaves this practice did end and the Oak's where attached
Cordial Greetings,
