Thanks - you're such a doll!

Also, does anyone know which medal was considered more prestigious: the Blue Max or the Order of the Red Eagle?

I know there's a basis for awarding the Eagle because at least one front-line officer received it for combat achievments (The Red Baron). Hence, I imagine it could plausibly have been given to a truly great U-Boat captain. I just don't know if it should be awarded for greater achievments than the Max.
