Award List - Croatian Iron Trefoil & King Zwonimir Crown

#1

Post by Stauffenberg II » 09 Jul 2003, 10:15

Hi everybody!

I´m interested in German recipients of the Croatian Iron Trefoil (Eisernes Dreiblatt) 1st Class, the highest award in Croatia.

I know:
Phleps, gen. Stolz Artur Martin, Gen. d. W.-SS (left)
Sanne Werner, Gen. Lt. (middle)
Stettner Ritter von Grabenhofen Walter, Gen. Lt. (right)

Can anybody add further names. An online source mentions that there are only 4 known recipients (Boban, Kvaternik, Pavelic, Phleps). But I could at least find two further (Sanne, Stettner).

I´m also interested in German recipients of the Croatian Order of King Zwonimir (Grand Cross & 1st Class), the 2nd highest award in Croatia. I know Aldrian, for example.

Thanks & Regards,
Stauffenberg II
