    Thank you CvM--thats appreciated but not necessary. Ill post a question but recant it if Kai decides differently.

    How many Heer Generals became Knights Cross Recipients while serving as a Generalmajor, OR a Generalleutnant OR a General der Gebirgetruppe? A couple of them even became Fieldmarshalls.

    All I need is a total number of Generals who got their RKs as a General in the Gebirgsjagers. No names needed unless you want to name them. IF this gets answered or not--ill gladly list them. [​IMG]

    Hint: --there are only a handful more of these than the number of condemned men at Nuremberg as listed above. :D

    Hello!

    And sorry guys for the delay. Just back from the annual Waffen-SS meeting!

    Ok, so the correct answer to my knowledge is 11 ( in the court ) so it´s over to you Carl "over 7,000" Evans!

    ;)

    Great try Ryan--but no Cigar. You are VERY close though--and no Waffen SS Gebirgejager RKTs are in the total--just Army Gebirgejagers.

    Thank you Der Linkmeister Kai--the question above still stands. Ill give it one more day to see if we have a winner and if not--ill post an easier one.

    Whats good about the answer I want--is that anyone can get it even with just a wild guess--and when answer is confirmed--ill give all other details to those with inquiring minds wanting to know. [​IMG]

    OK, if this isnt answered by the time I get back here tomorrow--ill give the answer and change the question.

    A tough one :D There were 16 Generals who got their RKs as a General in the Gebirgsjager.

    They were: (Rank at the time they get their RKs)

    Generalmajor:

    Karl Eglseer.
    Ludwig Kubler.
    Max-Josef Pemsel.
    Julius "Papa" Ringel.
    Ferdinand Schorner.

    Generalleutnant:

    Hans Degen.
    Eduard Dietl.
    Hermann Holter.
    Paul Klatt.
    Hans Kreysing.
    Hubert Lanz.
    Friedrich Sixt.

    General der Gebirgstruppe:

    Valentin Fuerstein.
    Ferdinand Jodl.
    Rudolf Konrad.
    Karl Suirre von Le.

    :cool:

    New Question?

    What date did Generalleutnant Heinz Ziegler get his Knights Cross? Also, what Panzer Army was he acting commander of--at that time.

    I don't usually have a 'go' at these questions but the old quiz seems to be dragging a bit.

    This is probably the wrong 'Ziegler' but was it 5/9/44 as acting commander of II SS-Freiwilligen-Panzer-Grenadier-Division 'Nordland' ? :confused:
