Hello
Sorry for my long absence on this thread.
Nice interestiong elements. Thanks to all members who continue to make this thread live.
Have you noticed that Gen.Lt. Lieb, althoiugh he was awarded the OL on the same day than Gille and Degrelle's awards is not present in Gille-Degrelle ceremony. I believe there were 2 distinct ceremonies even if we can see photos showing both 3 men after the bestowal process.
Regards
Denis

Denis, I think you could be right. The other event was with the Reichspressechef, please see my post with pic from 18.10.2004:Denis wrote:Have you noticed that Gen.Lt.
