Good morning,

I found no Otto Kittel death announcement in the February issues.
Meanwhile, I started working through the article which is very enjoyable to read. I found a minor typo on page2: The Eichenlaub and the Golden Oak Leaves are two different levels of the Ritterkreuz and the correct translation should simply "Oak Leaves".

Cheers,

Michael

..great resource , thanks for that. It's possible to do a daily search which will bring up every scanned Zeitung, Zeitschrift, Heft, Illustrierte for a particular date which in many cases can be 40-50 different titles...
