Well at least I can save a copy in my files and put a face to the name that is more than what I have this morning.

Unfortunately is so hard to found some RK pictures, I have a lot from Stichtenoth, but the guy who found it sold the other one showing him with the KC before my friend can secure it for me, he thought no problem as still there was another one, he diddn't realiza that the one he keep was a retouched one and I am still in the hunt for a wartime one wearing the RK. For Haase and Tanczos I have wartime ones, but I was not unhappy if I can see and/otr purchase more

Gracias por todo amigo sigue así es un verdadero placer ver tus threads.

Personally I think that Behler got this cross from a friend or so.
If I remember correctly, he was awarded the RK in March 1945, and during that short time it shouldn´t got that much worn. IMO.
The photo of him is post war, I think.

OK, I didn´t know that (even if I honestly thought so). I just didn´t have the time to check all pages in this thread!
