Did he possibly receive the KVK in WWII? Thanks, Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Danner Posted May 24 Author Share Posted May 24 Thanks. Werner was an error. No personnel file in the archives, so I have no picture and no idea about any WW2 awards. Since he was not a front officer I seriously doubt he had the Spangen to the EK1&2, so I would think the KVK2X&1X were prerequisites for his DKiS. I do not think a 1914 EK1 was sufficient to get the DKiS; you needed either a 1939 EK1 (or Spange) or a 1939 KVK1X. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
