Acknowledgements

The assistance of Lukasz Gaszewski is gratefully acknowledged; having visited this site he kindly sent me an e-mail packed with information about Albanian awards, and followed this up with a collection of images to enhance these pages. Erich Lenz, Emmanuel Halleux and Kris Johnston (of JKMilitaria) have also sent me pictures, and Erich was good enough to send me a copy of his OMSA article. Thierry Jacquemot sent several pictures of Orders he collected in the Balkans.

Grateful thanks to Medal-Medaille, Morton & Eden, Carsten Zeige, and Spink&Son, who have permitted the use of images from their catalogues.
