proposal arrived at HPA on 06.04.1945 ; entry in book "Verliehene Ritterkreuze" ; HPA-VV [=own, newly made proposal for final decision and signature] with #5026 is not handled in the ordinary procedere ; Karteikarte has entry date and date of handing over (08.04.) ; award date "17.04.1945" presumably originates by Krätschmer ; the column which states the award finally done in the book "Verliehene Ritterkreuze" is empty and was closed on 16.05.1945 [=last working day of HPA]
