That's reserved for times when Germany itself is at stake. "Expeditionary" missions never saw the iron cross. Those were only awarded in 1813-14, 1870-71, 1914-18 and 1939-45, the last ones reissued in the 50ies without a swastika. Colonial endeavors and out of country missions saw the Prussian equivalents of the modern "Ehrenkreuz" (cross of honor)
