More likely to be Legion of Honour, which could be French or Belgian.  Usually handed out in bulk, in long lists printed in the London Gazette.

May I suggest that you change the subject line to include Uzielli to avoid sending helpers down the wrong track?  It is spelled that way on the medal card and on numerous Google references.

The following is an extract from Major-General JFC Fuller's book Tanks in the Great War:

The 'King of Grocers', this was Colonel T J Uzielli, DSO, MC, DA, and QMG of the Corps, business-like, and an administrator from boot to crown. Suave yet fearless, tactfull yet truthful, the Corps owed much to his ability. It was never left in want, his decisions gave it what it asked for, his prevision cut this asking to a minimum. Ably seconded by Major HC Atkin-Berry, DSO, MC and Major RW Dundas MC, the 'A' and 'Q' Branches of the Tank Corps Staff formed the foundation of the Corps' efficiency.
