Summary/Abstract: The present study is an attempt to examine the cases of foreign nurses who worked for the German Red Cross during World War II and were awarded Nazi medals for their service. The article is not meant to be exhaustive – a number of issues are left pending that concern the biographies and circumstances of rewarding even of the girls and women mentioned in the study, Moreover, it is safe to say, that in reality the number of foreign nurses awarded the Third Reich medals was even higher. The article is the first attempt to synthesise available information in a separate study and to create a basis for the further research by historians of this complex and undoubtedly important issue.
