    Info on RK Winner Please?

    Hi, I am doing research on RK winner Willibald Zipfel at the moment.

    I have Obermaier's book and know the details of the RK award and his career in lll.St.G.2 Immelmann but does anyone have information on him after his exit from this unit?

    The official photo of him wearing the RK shows him wearing panzer skulls. Is it possible he entered the HG Panzer Division?

    Many thanks!

    Try Google or several books on the HG Div. list all their RK winners.

      re Zipfel

      Thanks for that Tom!

      His preliminary document is issued as below so I guess this would not be attributed as a HG Division RK? Any help much appreciated.

      Thanks again!

        I'll search my books to see what I can find out for you. His RK prelim shown would not mean for just the HD Div. however. Tom

          I checked my 3 books on the HG Div. and Zipfel never served in the HG Div. He must have been in a Heer Pz. Div. after he left the Luft. Tom

            Thanks Tom!

            Many thanks for your help Tom. That's a good start. I will begin looking the Heer direction.
