Published by the Union of Saxon front-line soldiers in the German Union of Warriors 1914/18. around 1920. The Saxon front-line union established these War Cross of Honor in 3rd grade, as well as the Knight's Cross. 1st class was an obverse with a white enameled cork. Shown here 2. The class was a white-enameled cross on a ribbon. There are options without an enameled back. 3rd class - a cross on a ribbon without enameled cross-shaped sleeves only with an enameled medallion on the front side. The knight's cross is found in various versions as a Latin cross with a crown on the upper cross sleeve. The front side is white or blue enameled.
These commemorative crosses were issued after World War I by many Warrior Union unions. After the 1st World War, there was no state award in memory of the war.
Thus, the Allied forces of the lands often created very attractive commemorative crosses and even knight's crosses for soldiers who participated in the war. He was awarded swords, as a rule, to front-line soldiers.
Although these crosses were issued by the Union of National Warriors, they had to be paid for by the bearer himself. At that time it was very expensive, and therefore today it is very rarely expensive.
