Awarding only recognized by the Odensgemeinschaft der Ritterkreuzträger. The order by Dönitz that all awards made after the 8th May 1945 are not legitimate, this therefore is not a legitimate award.
Proposal arrived at HPA end of march 1945 ; HPA-VV #4980 prepared and handed over on 04.04.1945 ; no further handling ; Bundesarchiv cannot proof this award (statement in 2004) ; award date by Krätschmer: "09.05.1945" ; Fellgiebel took over the award date "29.04.1945" from an OdR member who provided the info (1980s?) by own Bundesarchiv research.
