Might also be Oberst Sigmund Freiherr von Gravenreuth.

Gravenreuth served as the Geschwaderkommodore of KG30 and was awarded the Oak Leaves to the Knights Cross (posthumous).

Re: Luftwaffe Knight Cross Holder

There was a Staka in LG1, von Grafenreuth, killed in September 1940. What is correct spelling and were they related?
