Comparison German and American WWII awards?

[landsknechte]

Can anyone who's familiar with both the German and American awards systems from WWII comment on what classes of the EK/RK would be roughly equivalent to what American award?

Thanks,

Anyone adequately familiar could only comment that such a comparison cannot be made. That said, this issue has been vetted before; do a search.

I'm having trouble finding previous discussions of this subject.. If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

It is hard to truly translate.

Bronze Star = EKII
Silver Star = EKI
Army/Navy Cross = DKG
MOH = KC.
