for more information.

The military cross of the Ordre pour le Mérite was Imperial Germany's highest decoration for valor. This blue and gold neck order has long been considered one of the most beautiful decorations ever designed.

The award was nicknamed "the Blue Max" after Max Immelmann, who was one of the first airmen to receive the honor

Although the order was discontinued after 1918, those who had earned this coveted distinction proudly wore it the rest of their lives. Among the famous World War II personalities to do so were Hermann Göring, who won his flying with the Richthofen Geschwader, and Erwin Rommel, whose military daring as a young lieutenant resulted in the capture of over 1000 Italian soldiers at Caporetto in 1917.

The last man entitled to wear the Blue Max was best-selling German author Ernst Jünger, who earned his in the trenches of the Western Front and died in 1998 at the age of 101.
