Leo Etgen will become famous soon enough
Oberfeldwebel Franz Meindl
Hello Johannes

My information is that he was awarded the Deutsches Kreuz in Gold sometime in September 1944. Hopefully others can pin down a more precise date. The only photograph that I am aware of him most likely dates from his time with JG 51 and thus no Deutsches Kreuz in Gold is visible.

Horrido!

Leo
