      That's exactly what it is, but the 1935 issue. Would I be right in saying that this is a photo of Herr Goring?


      Kind regards

        Hi, Tom and Pierce.

        Thanks so much! Yeah, it is the the Saxe-Ernestine House Order Grand Cross (2. Modell).

        What a surprise! Milch (see pic) is another recipient... like Göring!



        All the best,

        Jaime.

          Friedrich Olbricht

          Hi again.

          I know the difficulty lies in the (poor-quaity) pic, but...



          Thanks in advance.

          Cheers,

          Jaime.

            Hello Jaime,

            Yes! The 2. Modell was the type awarded between 1864 and 1935. A number of the Nazi hierarchy were awarded these in the 1930s. The last award apparently in 1935 by Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.

              Hi Jaime,

              What a great picture of Friedrich Olbricht, with his daughter, Rosemarie, and son-in-law, Oberleutnant Friedrich Georgi. Taken in July of 1942 at his daughter's wedding. Here is a picture that was taken on the same day. It can be found in, Codename Valkyrie: General Friedrich Olbricht and the Plot against Hitler, by Helena Schrader. (Photo credited to Dr. Friedrich Georgi.) I believe these are all foreign order breast stars, but I have not really made an effort to ID them. All of the readily available sources make mention of only his German orders & decorations, but he obviously has some foreign decorations on his Ordensschnalle as well as those pinback breast stars.

              BTW: I highly recommend the book cited above. It is well-written and gives great insight to a very brave man, whose roll in history has typically been down-played by most accounts.

              Best regards,
              Tom

                Hi Tom,

                Thank you very much again!

                A few years ago a prominent spanish magazine reviewed this book (has got very good reviews). I think buying it will be a great idea.

                All the best,

                Jaime.
