          I wonder if there is evidence / documentation to prove that liebe had this cross during the war ?

            Thats a Sedlatzek KC right ? Wonder if there is some proof, that would be very interesting !

              Maybe Liebe bought the second set after the war? I don't know... the museum said both crosses belonged to him and were donated by the family.

                  That is unusual, wearing a transport clasp.

                    Yes, he served in the Luftwaffe before being transferred to an Army unit.

                            The funeral pillow of Hauptmann Gerhard Tschierschwitz, who got the KC on December 6th, 1944 (Chef 2. / Fallschirm-Panzer-Regiment Hermann Göring).

                            It seems the Knight's Cross is backwards.. but we don't know if it's his wartime piece or not...

                            Tschierschwitz died in 1997.
