    Just a thought, but do you think it's possible that it was something he might have traded for, or acquired from fellow FJs? I know that I've traded for patches & emblems in my military career, and maybe it was acquired in that manner?

    Great thread, great grouping!

      Hello Osacr,

      he didn't fight in Spain. He got the spanish award in Russia for healing a high rankend officer from the Blue Division from the gonorrhea

      Therefore he called this award his "gonorrhea medal".
      Best regards, Andreas
