Greece WWII Royal Hellenic Air Force Merit Cross 1945

Greece: WW2 Royal Hellenic Air Force Merit Cross, 
1945.
The Cross was awarded to Officers of the RHAF 
(Royal Hellenic Air Force) for outstanding leader-
ship, distinguished service and outstanding 
administration in war time, or for meritorious 
services that helped promoting the war effort.
The RHAF Merit Cross was instituted in 1945 by 
King Paul I and it was awarded initially for WW2 
with the date "1945" on the reverse. 
It was amended in 1953 in order to be awarded for 
the Greek Civil War and the Korean War as well, 
with the date "1948" on the reverse.
The Cross is scarce, given the small size of the 
RHAF and the fact that it was awarded only to 
officers. 
This is the 1st type of the Cross.
