Alexandre Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) Hello gentlemen, Im trying to found some infos about these awards for a research and a bio of SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer Sepp Dietrich. This award is in two classes, I just saw pictures of the second class. Can someone post a first-class? There is a ribbon bar of this award?, if so, can anyone show me? Thank you in advance. Regards Edited August 28, 2011 by Alexandre
Deruelle Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Hi, http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/43597-annaberg-kreuz-2klasse/ http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/29930-annaberg-cross-stickpin/ To be honest with you, I don't remember that Sepp Dietrich received such crosses http://www.geocities.com/~orion47/ http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepp_Dietrich#D.C3.A9corations Christophe
Deruelle Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Another link. http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=22447&hilit=annaberg It is possible for you to show us your Dietrich's bio please, it can be very interresting. Christophe
Destruction Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Hi Christophe, Do not forget that Annaberg-Kreuz was not among awards officially allowed to wear in the 3rd Reich, neither it was written in any official documents later. So it very well may be the reason why it is not listed in your links, along with some other FK awards he might had. Dietrich was a part of FK Oberland and as such most probably got the cross, hope Alexandre will tell us more about it. Here is a picture of Ernst Horadam, Oberland commander with Annaberg cross 1st class wearing on his neck.
Deruelle Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Hi, Welcome on board and many thanks for those explanation. When I read this topic I remember I have books about Annaberg battle. I have to read them again, I have already read them but 15 years ago. Your photo is great. So if you have more information about this Freikorps and the medals, don't hesitate to post them here. Christophe
