Re: Orden "Camilo Cienfuegos"

This is probably one of the ugliest Orders I´ve seen :( I think that, given the awarding criteria, it should have such a design that would make the owner proud to wear it.

Re: Orden "Camilo Cienfuegos"

I find it odd that it has a cross design, but Fidel has always been pretty "soft" on religion.
