He's talking with SS-Sturmbannführer Albert Stenwedel, 1959.

Hello MY Friend Sepp !!!!! If you could contact Bob Hritz, I believe he can give some real good info on his post war 57 RK w/Diamonds. Tom

Awarded the Ritterkreuz: February 20th, 1943

Interesting read about Mooyman's KC, posted by a member of the AHF:

"Mooyman's first Knights Cross was taken from him by a US soldier at May 4th 1945, as he told a reporter in 1967. He bought himself a second one in Germany in the 50's. That is the one that he gave away to his closest comrade (and also a medal collector). This man died a few years ago and his son finally sold the Cross to a well known Dutch collector who lives in the area of Rotterdam." (http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=39666)

Sepp.

Thanks for the words, Nick

I would like very much that my thread be pinned, but its not up to me.

I'll try to find more info on Vocke's RK.

Sepp.

Thx Sepp,

I would also like to find more pictures from him.

Hi guys! A set of photos sent by WAF member javi_e about a RK grouping belonging to a decorated soldier.

The pictures were posted by a family member via facebook, but no further information available so far. Sorry for the poor quality.

Apparently he got the RK on November 11th, 1944.

Another photo of the same KC grouping.

Regards,
