Unknown Awards and Decorations (Medals)
I need help identifying some Awards.
@A Unknown, possibly Japanese Breast Award? (Right, Admiral Richard Foerster)
@B Number 1?
Is number 2 the Messina Earthquake Medal 1908 (Italy)?
@C Is it the Spanish Grand Cross of Military Merit with White Decoration?
B and C are the awards of Generaladmiral Boehm.
Also, did Generaladmiral Hermann Boehm recieve the Anschluss Medal?
Thank you!

The medal ahead of the Earthquake Medal is the Ottoman silver Liakat Medal.

Unknown Awards and Decorations (Medals) of Erwin Wassner
I have another photo of Erwin Wassner wearing this award. It looks like the Order of the Sun. But which Class?

Bonjour,
This is not a Japanese order, but the Peruvian order (Order of the Sun).

Re: Unknown Awards and Decorations (Medals)
It can actually be any of the Classes (except the Grand Cross with Diamonds), they all look similar.

I am still thinking it could be the 3rd class.
