I´m not sure if he died in 1945.
Is there an list online with the US casualties in Wolrd War Two ? An list like the Social Death Index ?

Oh, sorry. I was too fast.
The Social Death Index begins in the 1960´s.
I´ve found in another source that Jensen died on 06.06.1949.

The next double recipient I´ve found is Hayden Martin Jensen (* 30.01.1911)
If he is really still alive than he is older than age 100.
He was a fighter pilot with totaly 5 air victories.

Eugene R. Hanson (* 16.05.1917)
Kenneth Charles Hall (* ??.??.????)

The next double recipient I´ve found with an for me unknown date of birth is:

There is no person with this name in the Social Death Index . So he could be still alive.

How many Navy Cross recipients from World War 2 are still alive as today ?
Perhaps we can find some names ?
I´ve 11 possible recipients.
I will start with the multiple recipients.
8 persons were awarded with the Nacy Cross for four times. For one I can´t find an death date. It is Harold Ralph Mazza (* 15.11.1912). Is he still alive ?
53 persons were awarded with the Navy Cross for three times. For three of them I can´t find death dates.
Benjamin Gifford Preston ( * 16.12.1913)
Stanley Winfield Vejtasa ( * 27.07.1914)
Noel Arthur Meredyth Gayler ( * 25.12.1913)
I know Gayler is still alive. What is with Preston and Vejtasa ??
And for an fourth man I can find completly no life dates:
George Edward Ferguson ( * ??.??.????)

I think the Air Force Cross was awarded to him last year. So now there are three recipients for action in World War 2.
Have a look at here:

Sorry for my only few words at the beginning of this topic.
I´m very interested in the Air Force Cross and his recipients. I collect all dates which I can find. A lot of dates are missing. And perhaps another one can help me.
For exemplare I´m on the search for some dates of birth:
Charles L. Brown, all I know is the year 1922
Russell M. Hunt, all I know is the year 1946
William C. Norris, all I know is the year 1926
Thomas Henry Kirk Jr., all I know is the year 1928
Dennis M. Richardson
Rowland W. Purser
Jon D. Harston, July 1948

Hello to all,
is there anybody who is interested in the history of the Air Force Cross and his recipients ?

There are two men with the name Eibenstein with the St. Henry.
Rudolf and Benno Eibenstein. I think they must be brothers, because they have the same place of birth.
And the men in the pic could be brothers, ...

Thanks Stefan !
This was the reason I?ve said Heydenreich was an artillery man.
This is all what we know:
The pic was made in Chemnitz after March 1918 and it shoes an Infantry Major.

Andy, many thanks for your possible help.
Heydenreich would be artillery ??

The last info I?ve is that the pic was made in Chemnitz.
