Until now, this essential reference book has only been available in its hard-to-find German version – this is not only a complete translation of this important source, but publication of an extended volume specially added to this English edition.
The text lists all known recipients (over 7,000 of them), giving name, rank, unit, and date of award for each. Recipients of the higher classes of this decoration, such as the Knight’s Cross with Oak Leaves, are also included. This book is destined to become a standard reference work on the Second World War German Armed Forces – Army, Kriegsmarine, Luftwaffe and Waffen-SS. The publication of occasional updates is planned, containing corrections and amendments.
