And I think the tanks also have it (and the planes of WW1 also had it, and possibly all the arm forces) but Skybird or other one that knows can correct me! This case is more like a simbol for german arm forces.
It's like our Christ Cross, it's a symbol of our nation (along with our shield) and so of our arm forces (army,navy and air force;but I think the last two uses it more).
About the medal, the new one, I do not like it. I think it's the color of the medal.The ribom is fine, it's the flag colors and each one has it's meaning as all the colors form flags,etc, but the golden medal... Well "we don't argue tastes!"(sounds better in portuguese).
And I think that the iron cross would be a better that this new medal, and with the same eagle simbol of the new one in the middle and some words of valor or one date, the 1813 or other that have significance to the german!
Another off-topic, I also don't like the portuguese medal of valor, it's also something that it's doesn't fit right with our history! |
