Iron Cross statistics!

[George Stimson]

Perhaps I should mention.... yet another 1939 EK 2.

[Blitz]

More is NEVER enough, Tony. And thank you for your kind words. They warm my heart, they really do. And George.. ..Thank you too!

You're very welcome, Antti!

You can add one more 1939 EKI to the totals.

I forgot to include it in the list above. This EKI was awarded to Oberst Rudolph Wodarg, Chef Abteilung Ic, Luftwaffen Fuhrungs Stab. It was awarded for 25 torpedo missions over the Black Sea in 1941. Oberst Wodarg was awarded the German Cross in Silver on May 10, 1945. Two days after the end of hostilities in Europe. Thanks to Rick Lundstrom for filling out the details of this officer's career.

Antti,

If it fits in the the summa sumarum I have a S&L manufactured copie of a Hindenburgstern to the Grand Cross. I have sent you pictures and have left it up to you if it has merit here. The original will never be available. This is the best I have found in 38 years.

Thanks!

Tony
