zajímavý detail je železný kříž I a II třídy protože oba na sobě mají sponu 1939 za opětovné udělení - což znamená že musel oba stupně obdžet ještě od císaře Viléma - pravděpodobně za to že bojoval s bílými Finy po boku německého expedičního sboru proti Rudým Finům a ruským bolševikům v občanské válce o nezávislost mezi lednem 1918 a koncem WWI.

Maršál Mannerheim opravdu obdržel Železný kříž I. a II. třídy 1914 jako vysoký představitel mladého státu za spolupráci s "baltickou německou divizi". Po ukončení bojů s rudými gardami a ruskými bolševiky vyznamenal příslušníky německé divize řádem Kříže Svobody. Na základě této skutečnosti obdržel tedy jednak maršál, ale i několik finských důstojníků Železný kříž. Maršál byl nositelem Rytířského kříže Železného kříže 1939. Rytířský kříž mohl být udělen jen za předpokladu, že jmenovaný je již nositelem Železného kříže 1939 I. a II.třídy. Maršál také byl nositelem řádu Svatého Jiří, nikoliv kříže Sv. Jiří, který byl určen jako vysoké vyznamenání, ale jen pro vojíny a poddůstojníky ruské armády.
