Jos the picture of Stolle that you posted above is perhaps my favorite Luftwaffe picture. It totally captures the attitude of the Luftwaffe fighter pilot in WWII

I'm happy to say the KCs are all mine......

[Jos L C]

Super ,he got it 17 March 1943 ,not ?

Do you happen to know the other recipients of your KC's ?

Jos yes..that is the date. The Stolle cross is by itself along w/ a wartime portrait. The other cased crosses are part of large groups, both fighter pilots. The one on the right is Gunther Hannak JG 77 (800 SL). The loose KC is part of a large group to an infantry officer (800/65). The oaks and KC are unattributed, but came back from the war just like this and are a worn set....they belonged to an OLT, but we will never know which. I got them from an estate liquidator here in the US..They were a GI souvenier.
