                  Decorations of an unofficial Knight's Cross holder: SS-Hauptsturmführer Karl-Heinz Gustavsson (1915 - 1990)

                  Some sources indicate he received the Ritterkreuz on 03.03.1945 for his command of 3.Batterie / SS-Flak-Abteilung 2 / 2.SS-Panzer-Division “Das Reich” but this is unsupported by official documentation.
