Historie

Hermann Gring, Erwin Rommel, Manfred von Richthofen, Paul von Hindenburg, Helmuth von Moltke, Ernst Junger, Max Immelmann they were among the most famous individuals to be awarded the Kingdom of Prussias highest military order, the Pour le Mrite, better known as the Blue Max. Until the end of the Great War the Blue Max was the most prestigious accolade, a German serviceman could wish for. Yet fictions and myths about the Blue Max have obscured its long and fascinating history. Kevin Brazier, in this comprehensive account of the Pour le Mrite and of the men who received it, aims to set the record straight, and he provides a comprehensive listing of the men who were given this high honor.
