Re: Ehrenpokal der Luftwaffe
As with all things Luftwaffe, there can be a series of different dates that lead to confusion:
1) date eventual recipient was recommended by his unit;
2) date recommendation approved by his unit's approving authority (usually Fliegerkorps of Luftflotte);
3) date recommendation approved by the Luftwaffenpersonalamt;
4) printed date that appears on the certificate of award;
5) date the award actually made;
6) date that appears in the recipient's Soldbuch.
Some of these dates may be the same, but certainly not all of them. The time elapsed from 1) above to 4), 5) or 6) above could be anywhere from a few weeks to 8 or 10 months.
So I guess it will depend on which date you are talking about?
