Ingsoc Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 I'm trying to compose a list of all the decoration Michael Wittmann receive and the exact dates that there were awarded, here what I have so far: 13/03/38 Awarded Austria reunification medal 01/10/38 Awarded Sudetenland medal 12/07/41 Awarded Iron Cross 2nd Class 20/08/41 Awarded Wound Badge in Black 08/09/41 Awarded Iron Cross First Class 21/11/41 Awarded Tank Assault Badge in Silver 14/01/44 Awarded the Knight's Cross 30/01/44 Awarded the Oakleaves 22/06/44 Awarded the Swords He also receive the Royal Bulgarian Soldiers Cross of the Order of Bravery 2nd Class and the ost-front medal in Aug. 1942, however I don't know the exact date. Also sine he join the SS at 01/04/37 he was qualified to the SS long service medal for 4 years at 01/04/41, however I don't know if this medal was awarded automaticly at the exact date or was it delay for some reasons (like being in combat situations, approval by commander, etc.). I also wasn't able to find if he was awarded the Prague bar to the Sudetenland medal, as the LSSAH also took part in the annexation of Czechoslovakia (he receive the Sudetenland medal when he, as part of the LSSAH enter the Sudetenland). Any addition information and correction you could provide would be welcome.
