Herpolsheimer gave me this photo in the mid-1980s and I used it with his full biography in "German Cross in Gold Holders of the SS and Police," volume 1. A clearer full image copy is in the book and the Vorschlag for his German Cross in Gold. Herpolsheimer was recommended for the German Cross in Gold on October 15, 1943, by KC winner Helmut Kämpfe whose biography is in the same volume.

Confirmed award dates for Herpolsheimer:

Iron Cross 2nd Class- Feb 1, 1942
Iron Cross 1st Class- June 1, 1943
Wound Badge in Silver- Aug 12, 1943

German Cross in Gold- Nov 26, 1943

Untersturmführer Nov 9, 1944

No award documents, just his biographical career information, personal letters we exchanged, and his Personalakte with the text of his recommendation for the German Cross in Gold.

Best,
Mark
