Re: German Cross in Gold
John,
I would say it is definately possible for some pilots to have received the DKiG at the late dates you noted. One of the Soldbuchs I own is to a wireless operator who received his DKiG in April of 45, though he was serving with a flak unit at that time. Here again he is not listed among in current sources, however I do have a photo of him wearing the DK to substantiate his award.
Just out of curiousity what are the pilot names you are trying to pin down?
Cheers
Jeremy
Ed thanks for the website info.
