    1. What kind of character did Victor had? Did the SA men idolize him? Edward L. Hsiao
    2. To Jen Z or Anyone, I'm sorry but Karl-Heinz Moehle did not command U-22 U-boat during WWII. Still waiting for a post World War II picture of Moehle who have a clean shaven face of course. Edward L. Hsiao
    3. Jen Z or Anyone, I hope you got a picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle in after World War II times in the 1950's and 1960's. Edward L. Hsiao
    4. Jen Z, I think the Karl-Heinz Moehle that you mention about was correct. He was commander of U-22 and U-123 during WWII. Moehle was in the Bundesmarine after WWII. The same Karl-Heinz Moehle! Hopefully a postwar of Karl-Heinz Moehle. Edward L. Hsiao An after World War II picture of a clean shaven face man named Karl-Heinz Moehle is needed to forgot my troubles.I hope the picture will come soon. Edward L. Hsiao
    5. Dear Sir, Thank you for this good reply. I learn something new. Do you have a picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle von Hoffmannswaldau in Bundesmarine uniform please? Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao I forgot to ask what was Karl-Heinz Moehle von Hoffmannswaldau highest rank in the Bundesmarine before he retired from it? Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    6. I need a post World War II picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle that was taken in the 1950's or the 1960's. He was the first U-boat commander of U-123. Little of post WWII life of Moehle was not available. But I want to know if Moehle joined the Bundesmarine in the late 1950's. Thank you. Edward L. Hsiao
    7. Gentlemen, It's been a little over twenty years since Gerhard Konopka passed away on January 29,1997. Can you fellows post pictures of Gerhard Konopka after World War II especially some that are taken shortly before his death. I already seen one postwar picture taken in 1974 of Gerhard Konopka on page 261 in a book called "The Faces of Courage". He was bearded and dressed up in a black suit. Were there other photos of him? I like Gerhard Konopka clean shaven. I tried other forums but no luck. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    8. Gentlemen, Do you know there were any young recipients of the Bundeswehr who were holders of the German Great Federal Service Cross(Neck Order)? I mean those who were in their forty or more years of age. Most of the time it was the Bundeswehr Generals and Admirals in their late fifties and early sixties of age that were the holders of that German neck order. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao P.S. Although not in the Bundeswehr, Col. Ulrich K. Wegener was a holder of the German Great Federal Service Cross at the age of 48.
    9. Gentlemen, I guess will never know for sure about how many recipients of the DKiG and DKiS that joined the Bundeswehr. I kind of knew that these holders of the German Cross that were in the Bundeswehr outnumbered those who won the Knight's Cross that were in the Bundeswehr. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    10. Gentlemen, That's better than nothing. I sort of knew it was going to hard to find detail information about his military career. Thank you. Edward L. Hsiao
    11. Gentlemen, Heinz Otto of Schwere Panzer-Abteilung 506 was awarded the German Cross in Gold on June 1,1944 and the Army Honor Roll Clasp January 7,1945. Do you have anymore information about him during WWII and his post war fate? I think his last wartime rank was Hauptmann. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    12. Gentlemen, These German soldiers had been awarded both the German Cross in Gold and the Close Combat Clasp in Gold from 1942 to early 1945. There were Helmut Hellinger,Franz Ingenbrand,Josef Obermeier,Karl Peter Vehlow,Gustav Vormdohre,and Fritz Willno to name and few. My question was what was the fate of them and if they were recommended for the Knight's Cross before WWII ended for them? Or claimed to be awarded the KC? I remember that Josef Obermeier was recommended for the Knight's Cross at least two times. There was no final outcome of there recommendations. I know there were others who were holders of the German Cross in Gold and the Close Combat Clasp in Gold that claimed to be holders of the Knight's Cross but without confirmination. SS-Hauptsturmfuhrer Emil Huber of "Das Reich" Division,was one example. He was the holder of both the German Cross in Gold and the Close Combat in Gold. He truthly claimed that he was also a Knight's Cross holder but without firm proof. I couldn't help being a Knight's Cross fan. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    13. Gentlemen, How many DKiG and DKiS (German Crosses in Gold and Silver) holders approximately were in the Bundeswehr? I can't find a website that is dedicated for DKiG and DKiS Holders whose service were in the Wehrmacht and the Bundeswehr. I had to admit that I like the 1957 versions of the DKiG and DKiS better than the ones with the Swastika. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    14. Gentlemen, When was Robert Weber became Kapt.z.S? I knew he directed the big guns of the battleship "Tirpitz" against targets of Spitzbergen on September of 1943. Did he got any foreign decorations during his service in the Kreigsmarine? Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
    15. Gentlemen, Anybody have a picture of Wolf Junge with all his decorations that includes his DKiG? For a Kriegsmarine officer who was only 41 years of age to command that huge mighty battleship called "Tirpitz", was really a big responsibility! Junge must have won his DKiG for fighting off plenty of air attacks against his big ship for much off 1944. Sincerely, Edward L. Hsiao
