Hi,

Does anyone have an idea as to who this Luftwaffe Knight's cross Holder maybe. It's been in my collection for a good number of years, but have long lost his details, many thanks in advance,

David

Definitely not Seppl Seiler. It's Johannes Lutter of SKG210.

Re: Knight's Cross Holder
 
Hi Gentlemen,

Thank you all for your time and effort.

Lutter it is!

Just read his mini bio in Obermaier's Vol 2 of the Ritterkreuztrager.

He does have a remarkable resemblance to Seiler though!

Thank you all again,

David
