          Rudolf Pflanz - RK in August 1941

          Johannes Bölter - RK in April, 1944

          Ludwig - You mentioned before that the RK you showed earlier (935-4) must have been a later acquisition by the RK holder, as the award date (September, 1943) couldn't match the cross. Now that we know that the PKZ numbers did not date from 1944, as previously thought, but from, instead, 1942 (and maybe earlier), that can no longer be stated with certainty.

              I found this footage from an old documentary about the life of Hans-Joachim Marseille made during the 70's.

              I don't know if this is the cross that was present at Uetersen Museum (and late got stolen) or something else.

                I just repeated what Dietrich Maerz wrote, when I posted the Reinhardt cross the first time, some years ago. I don´t spend much time on KCs today.
