    Glad to see someones making the attempt but, itll never be complete-like the DKiGs list will never be complete. This would be akin to making a list of all those who got the Wound badge in Gold or Bronze CCC etc ;-)) But still, its a nice list to go on and more names for me to collect.

    the author of that listings was a member here at one time Ray, in fact we had some good discussions with him here on the very subject matter, where he is I am not sure possibly in the military as he talked of that years ago on that other forum about leaving and pursuing that career. As CArl said it will never be complete there are too many that performed the single hand destruction of armor and were KIA in the process or MIA.

    Hi E, I remember him if he is whom im think inig about?

    Also, as im going through all the FJ DKiG guys, I noticed a VERYsad lack of info on many of them such as exact units served in and accurate dates. I dont know if the LW got sloppy in keeping records of such things or if the books authors just got lazy but, I noticed that the vast majority of the FJ DKiGers dates aere wither: Oct-1-1944 and Jan-1-1945.
