    Description

    The
    Mobilization Cross 1912 - 1913
    was founded on 9 July 1913 by Emperor
    Franz Joseph
    and was awarded to all military personnel who served at least four weeks with a mobilized unit in response to the Balkan crisis in late September 1912.
    Austro-Hungarian forces that had been mobilized as a precautionary measure during the Balkan Wars between an alliance of Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, and Serbia on the one hand and Ottoman Turkey on the other. Austria did not intervene in the wars but they led to Turkey being largely thrown out of Europe and a much-strengthened of Serbia, making Austria more nervous of her Slav neighbor and laying the ground for the outbreak of World War I.
