Ehrenliste der Deutschen Luftwaffe

[Peter Kassak]

Hi all,

Has anyone Ehrenliste der Deutschen Luftwaffe accessible for years 1943/44 ? I would like to check the ZG 76 personnel receiving this award. It would much help me in my research.
Googling it, I found that it does not mention the unit, but from August 1943 until september 1944 flugzeugfuhrer in einem Zerstorergeschwader and Bordfunker in einem Zerstorergeschwader would be of interest...to narrow the search

Thank you

For anyone to have all the Listes is a tall order-they were as ilisis shows but individual sheets as opposed to a book

Hello Peter,

I do have the Patzwall book "Der Ehrenpokal für besondere Leistung im Luftkrieg' but the names are listed alphabetically. So I must go through 185 pages to sort all persons who match your description. I am willing to do that for you as a long term friend, but you will understand that this will take some time.

All the best, Marcel

Unfortunately Patzwalls book will not indicate the type of unit they were attached to only their job within the crew I.e. Pilot, wireless op., etc..

As Chris noted there is not a comprehensive book on these lists, sadly, your best bet is looking through military dealer website. Many have at least one though I've found later war lists are severely lacking.

Date is the date when Göring signed the list.
"EP" is for "Ehrenpokal"
"DK" is for "Deutsches Kreuz in Gold"
"FF" stands for "Flugzeugführer", "BF" for "Bordfunker" and "StK" for Staffelkapitän.
Unfortunatelly I have no copies from other years.
