    RK Recipient

    Gentleman..

    I have an RK that belonged to Joachim Barth. He became an RK Trager in December 1942. I will post images of the RK that I have later for general interest, but am very interested to find out when Barth was promoted to Major, so that I can date a photo of him I have.

    I've drawn a blank so far so if anyone can provide any information it will really be greatly appreciated.

    Regards
    Chris

        From divisional history:

        "Am 30.9.41 erhielt Chef 3./Pz.J&aum;g.Abt.13 (Oblt. Barth) den Befehl, mit der Kompanie den Panzerschutz für die 2./AA.13 zu übernehmen. ..." (S.84) His company put 16 enemy tanks out of action in 40 minutes - Kompanietruppführer Oberschirrm. Meusgeier received RK for this action.

        Barth received DKiG on Dec.19, 1941.
