Hi,

I am new in this forum, so sorry if I am at the wrong section of it, but, could someone please help me with translating the document in the link?

http://www.lktb.info/screenSM.jpg

It is a scan of copy of military archive materials of my greatgrandfather.

Any help will be appreciated, thanks a lot!

Can't say I can decipher it all but it seems a certificate of the Austro-Hungarian army (K.u.K. Armee) stating that a certain lieutenant was awarded the Military Order of Merit (Militärisches Verdienstkreuz) for bravery, first in July 1916 and then again in December (higher class of the same order)
