I'm just wondering, I notice that there are a lot of obituaries of RKT who weren't noted on the 'Living RK Holders List' . How that's possible?

Phil,

Waldermar is still looking strong , much info has been researched and forum column and books written about RKT's but little about von Gazen, a Swords winner by 1943 as an Combat level infantry Officer , a remarkable man !!
