    Hi Andrew,

    It is Guenther Halm instead of Gerhard. Guenther was at that time the youngest KC Holder. He received his KC personally from GFM Erwin Rommel...He and his wife Regina Halm are very nice and friendly people.



    Here are the surnames:
    Hinrich Ahrens
    August Kaminski
    Herbert Fries
    Franz Weber
    Ludwig Bauer
    Kurt Bischof
    Georg Bose (Georg is the only KC holder who is still active on the internet with his 86 years!!!!)
    Siegfried Gerstner

            Updated list with new additions:

            Albert Kerscher (Heer) KC OL
            Guenther Halm (Heer)
            Hinrich Ahrens (Heer)
            August Kaminski (Heer)
            Herbert Fries (Luftwaffe)
            Franz Weber (Heer)
            Ludwig Bauer (Heer)
            Kurt Bischof (Heer)
            Georg Bose (Heer)

            Unfortunately I have been led to believe that Egger passed away.

              What am I thinking? I received a letter confirming that he has passed. Sorry.

                Yes, Paul Egger died in july 2007. I wrote him a letter shortly after his death not knowing about his recent passing. I have still a good contact with his partner who lived together with him.

                Heres one nice pic I came along.

                    Add Joachim Boosfeld (SS) to the list. I don't recall exactly whether he is RKT or with oakleaves etc. or not.

                          Boosfeld won the KC, GC, and Close Combat Clasp in Gold. Not an EL winner.

                            Yes, you are correct. I have him listed in the KC Winner index. If you look, the list is broken up into three sections: KC/OS, KC/O, and KC.
