Deletion of Michał Lauer

Comment: I'm really not sure. 's point no. 1 is apparently a very crude tool, and especially so because of the "only the highest military grade of such awards qualifies" remark. The problem is, various high-level awards are hardly comparable: you say DSO and DSC are higher than the highest Polish military decoration, I wouldn't agree to that. But even when sticking to highest decorations mentioned in  (think Legion of Honour), on one hand this means that roughly 2900 people who received the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour are eligible - people of all grades and classes mind you. Now let's compare it to the total number of people who received the highest class of Virtuti Militari. 2 people for 1806-1815 period (Józef Poniatowski|Poniatowski and Davout), zero for 1815-1831 period (and only one 2nd class - to Jan Skrzynecki), six in the 1914-1939 period (Piłsudski, Ferdinand Foch, Ferdinand I of Romania, Albert I of Belgium, Alexander I of Yugoslavia and Victorio Emanuele III), and finally 13 people for the 1939-1945 period (none awarded by Poland, all 13 by the commies - to various Soviet and Soviet-aligned officers (Virtuti_Militari#People.27s_Republic_of_Poland|check the list here). You get my point? The highest tier of the Virtuti Militari was awarded only 21 times throughout history - and only to highest-ranking officials who are already encyclopedic even without it. And in the case of VM the problem is that most classes are tied to recipient's rank
