DDD777 Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) If somebody have some additional information about DK holder Hans-Helmuth von Horn, let me now pls !Thank you in advance ! :beer:Horn_Stammbaum.doc Edited April 27, 2009 by DDD777
phoenixpwb Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I 'think' I have a painting (watercolor actually) of this guy (going by his awards). I'm trying to research if this may be the 'right' guy. I joined this forum due to this thread. Hoping you might contact me (rc@phoenixpwb.com) wherein we might exchange some notes since I don't know how to post images to share the watercolor. Rick Costello
Simon Orchard Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Rick Having seen these docs it seems even more unlikely Horn is your man. Neither painting shows hom wearing a Hindenburg Cross, if he joined the KM in '36 then he couldn't have qualified for a 12 year long service medal

phoenixpwb Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Can't really make out the face. Where I can't post a photo here perhaps you might drop me an email & I'll send you the two images of the paintings & you might tell me if there 'appears' a similarity? Email - rc@phoenixpwb.com Thanx, Rick Costello

Simon Orchard Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 http://www.ww2awards.com/person/14668 Yes, i'm familiar with that site. The point is, the painting shows a man with both the 12 and 4 year long service medals and a KVKII. Are any of those present in the photos?

My opinion, the mann from painting and Horn are absolutely different people. 1 Horn is with big scar on the left part of his face. 2 Horn dont have KVK II, this is 99% sure. 3 The painting guy dont have a Hindenburg Kross. 4 Horn was 43y old recieving DKiG, the guy is 30-35y old. ....
