Aeronautical Virtue recipients

[Alexei2102]

Gents,

I need some information for my research. Can someone please notify me either by reply here either by PM the recipients list (for WW2 period) for the Aeronautical Virtue - officer and commodore class ??

Many thanks in advance,

Alex

PS - if there is also a list for the Knights, I would be very appreciative for that too, but it only has a secondary value in my research.

I have a copy of Romanian Official Gazette no 251/29.10.1944 , in which Cpt. Alexandru Serbanescu , Lt. Marinescu T. Eugen and Adj stg. Constantin Lungulescu (post mortem ) are mentioned as awarded with officer class . There are many others aviators awarded with knight class . Send me your e-mail if you need a copy of Official Gazette .
