List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (Bn–Bz)

The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross (German: Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes) and its variants were the highest awards in the military and paramilitary forces of Nazi Germany during World War II. The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross was awarded for a wide range of reasons and across all ranks, from a senior commander for skilled leadership of his troops in battle to a low-ranking soldier for a single act of extreme gallantry.[1] A total of 7,321 awards were made between its first presentation on 30 September 1939 and its last bestowal on 17 June 1945.[Note 1] This number is based on the analysis and acceptance of the order commission of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR). Presentations were made to members of the three military branches of the Wehrmacht—the Heer (Army), Kriegsmarine (Navy) and Luftwaffe (Air Force)—as well as the Waffen-SS, the Reichsarbeitsdienst (RAD—Reich Labour Service) and the Volkssturm (German national militia). There were also 43 recipients in the military forces of allies of the Third Reich.[3]

These recipients are listed in the 1986 edition of Walther-Peer Fellgiebel's book, Die Träger des Ritterkreuzes des Eisernen Kreuzes 1939–1945 [The Bearers of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross 1939–1945]. Fellgiebel was the former chairman and head of the order commission of the AKCR. In 1996, the second edition of this book was published with an addendum delisting 11 of these original recipients. Author Veit Scherzer has cast doubt on a further 193 of these listings. The majority of the disputed recipients had been nominated for the award in 1945, when the deteriorating situation of Germany during the final days of World War II left a number of nominations incomplete and pending in various stages of the approval process.[4]

Listed here are the 357 Knight's Cross recipients of the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS whose last name is in the range "Bn–Bz".[5] Fellgiebel himself delisted one and Scherzer has challenged the validity of eight more of these listings.[6][7] This is the second of two lists of all 725 Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients whose last name starts with "B". The recipients whose last name is in the range "Ba–Bm" is listed at List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (Ba–Bm).[8] The recipients are initially ordered alphabetically by last name. The rank listed is the recipient's rank at the time the Knight's Cross was awarded.

Background

The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross and its higher grades were based on four separate enactments. The first enactment, Reichsgesetzblatt I S. 1573 of 1 September 1939 instituted the Iron Cross (Eisernes Kreuz), the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross and the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross (Großkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes). Article 2 of the enactment mandated that the award of a higher class be preceded by the award of all preceding classes.[9] As the war progressed, some of the recipients of the Knight's Cross distinguished themselves further and a higher grade, the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub), was instituted. The Oak Leaves, as they were commonly referred to, were based on the enactment Reichsgesetzblatt I S. 849 of 3 June 1940.[10] In 1941, two higher grades of the Knight's Cross were instituted. The enactment Reichsgesetzblatt I S. 613 of 28 September 1941 introduced the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub und Schwertern) and the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub, Schwertern und Brillanten).[11] At the end of 1944 the final grade, the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Golden Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit goldenem Eichenlaub, Schwertern und Brillanten), based on the enactment Reichsgesetzblatt 1945 I S. 11 of 29 December 1944, became the final variant of the Knight's Cross authorized.[12]

The Oberkommando der Wehrmacht (Supreme Command of the Armed Forces) kept separate Knight's Cross lists, one for each of the three military branches, Heer (Army), Kriegsmarine (Navy), Luftwaffe (Air Force) and for the Waffen-SS. Within each of these lists a unique sequential number was assigned to each recipient. The same numbering paradigm was applied to the higher grades of the Knight's Cross, one list per grade.[13] Of the 357 awards made to servicemen whose last name is in the range "Bn–Bz", 35 were later awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, six the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords and one the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds; 22 presentations were made posthumously. Heer members received 246 of the medals; 17 went to the Kriegsmarine, 78 to the Luftwaffe, and 16 to the Waffen-SS.[5] The sequential numbers greater than 843 for the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and 143 for the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords are unofficial and were assigned by the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) and are therefore denoted in parentheses.[14]

  This along with the + (plus) indicates that a higher grade of Knight's Cross was awarded as well.
  This along with the * (asterisk) indicates that the Knight's Cross was awarded posthumously.
  This along with the ! (exclamation mark) indicates that author Walther-Peer Fellgiebel has expressed doubt regarding the veracity or formal correctness of the listing.
  This along with the ? (question mark) indicates that historian Veit Scherzer has expressed doubt regarding the veracity or formal correctness of the listing.

Notes

  1. ^ Großadmiral and President of Germany Karl Dönitz, Hitler's successor as Head of State (Staatsoberhaupt) and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, had ordered the cessation of all promotions and awards as of 11 May 1945 (Dönitz-decree). Consequently the last Knight's Cross awarded to Oberleutnant zur See of the Reserves Georg-Wolfgang Feller on 17 June 1945 must therefore be considered a de facto but not de jure hand-out.[2]

  26. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the 9./Jagdgeschwader 3 "Udet".[37]
  27. ^ Max Bork's nomination by his unit was received by the Heerespersonalamt (HPA—Army Staff Office) on 13 April 1945 via the Reichsführer-SS. Major Joachim Domaschk requested the explanatory statement from the Commander-in-Chief of AOK 1 via teleprinter message on 14 April 1945. He renewed his request on 5 May 1945. Domasck noted this in the book of "Verliehene Ritterkreuze" (Awarded Knight Crosses). In parallel the HPA received a second nomination by his unit, approved by all intermittent commanding officers, on 28 April 1945. This nomination apparently never made it to Major Domaschk. Both nominations by his unit fail to indicate further evidence that the nomination was processed or approved. The presentation date is an assumption of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR). Bork was a member of the AKCR.[38]
  28. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of the 47. Volksgrenadier Division.[38]
  29. ^ a b According to Scherzer as Leutnant of the Reserves and aide-de-camp in the Stab I./Flaksturm-Regiment 5.[39]
  30. ^ According to Scherzer as Oberstleutnant (Ergänzungsoffizier—supplementary officer).[39]
  31. ^ According to Scherzer as adjutant of the II./SS-Panzer-Regiment 2.[39]
  32. ^ According to Scherzer as Zugführer (platoon leader) of the I. Zug/Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 1023 in the Panzerjäger-Abteilung 23.[41]
  33. ^ Walter Botsch's nomination by his unit was already received by the Heerespersonalamt (HPA—Army Staff Office) on 27 October 1944, forwarded for approval on 3 November 1944 and apparently deferred. The file card notes in the field for the presentation: "see folder for further leadership reports". A second nomination by his unit, most likely related to a different act of bravery or leadership skills, according to the file card was received by the HPA on 5 April 1945. The book of "Verliehene Ritterkreuze" (Awarded Knight Crosses) states "deferred" because Botsch was considered missing in action on 16 April 1945. A nomination of the HPA with number 5082 was created. According to the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) the award was presented in accordance with the Dönitz-decree. This is illegal according to the Deutsche Dienststelle (WASt) and lacks legal justification. The presentation date was assigned by Walther-Peer Fellgiebel.[38]
  34. ^ According to Scherzer as commanding general of the LIII. Armeekorps.[38]
  35. ^ According to Scherzer as adjutant of Grenadier-Regiment 501.[43]
  36. ^ According to Scherzer as Staffelführer of the 2./Sturzkampfgeschwader 2.[43]
  37. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of Heeres-Sturmartillerie-Brigade 912.[45]
  38. ^ No evidence of the award can be found in the German Federal Archives. According to Josef Brandner's own account he received the Oak Leaves from the commanding general of the XXXVIII. Armeekorps, General der Artillerie Kurt Herzog in the Courland Pocket. He did not mention a date for the presentation. Presumably pictures showing him with Oak Leaves exist. The Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) assumes a direct presentation from Berlin. The presentation date is also an assumption by the AKCR. A presentation of the Oak Leaves only four to five weeks after the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross is very unlikely. The German Federal Archives holds numerous records of nominations which have been rejected on the grounds that a high-ranking military award had just been presented. Brandner was a member of the AKCR.[48]
  39. ^ According to Scherzer as Leutnant of the Reserves.[45]
  40. ^ According to Scherzer as a leader in the 7./Panzergrenadier-Regiment 103.[45]
  41. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the 2./Jagdgeschwader 77.[49]
  42. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of Aufklärungs-Abteilung 392 (kroatische).[49]
  43. ^ According to Scherzer as commander Festung (fortress) Marienburg.[49]
  44. ^ According to Scherzer as chief of the 14./Grenadier-Regiment 507.[49]
  45. ^ According to Scherzer as leader of the II. Zug/ 8./Grenadier-Regiment 308.[49]
  46. ^ According to Scherzer as leader of Aufklärungs-Abteilung 100.[53]
  47. ^ a b According to Scherzer on 26 March 1944 as a pilot and an observer in the Stab/Nahaufklärungs-Gruppe 9.[53]
  48. ^ According to Scherzer as a Zugführer (platoon leader) in the 12./Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 91.[53]
  49. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the Aufklärungsstaffel 5.(F)/122.[53]
  50. ^ According to Scherzer on 27 July 1943.[54]
  51. ^ Oskar Bremermann's nomination by his unit was received on 19 April 1945. The Heerespersonalamt (HPA—Army Staff Office) did not create an internal nomination request. The existing file card in the German Archives is not contemporary! This card states: "nominated on 20 April 1945, forwarded by Major Joachim Domaschk on 28 April yes". The book "Verliehene Ritterkreuze" (Awarded Knight Crosses) states approval by Domaschk "Knight's Cross yes". No further evidence of the presentation can be found. According to the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) the award was presented in accordance with the Dönitz-decree. This is illegal according to the Deutsche Dienststelle (WASt) and lacks legal justification. The presentation date was assigned by Walther-Peer Fellgiebel. Bremermann was a member of the AKCR.[48]
  52. ^ Josef Bremm's nomination by his unit was rejected by Major Joachim Domaschk on 30 April 1945 and instead recommended for the German Cross in Gold. Just like all other nominations, which at this point in time were related to members of the 11. Armee, the nomination was not further processed since the 11. Armee had capitulated on 21 April 1945 and presentations to prisoners of war or missing in action were prohibited. In all other instances of similar circumstances a note on the nomination can be found stating: "postpone AOK 11" or "postpone according to AHA 44 Ziff. 572 (Allgemeines Heeresamt — General Army Office)". The entry date noted on the nomination list for the higher grades of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross is 28 April 1945. The list indicates a note "deferred". The Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) claims that the award was presented in accordance with the Dönitz-decree. This is illegal according to the Deutsche Dienststelle (WASt) and lacks legal justification. The sequential number "159" was assigned by the AKCR. The presentation date was assigned by Fellgiebel. Bremm was a member of the AKCR.[48]
  53. ^ According to Scherzer as leader of the infantry company in the Kampfstaffel [Kasta] of the Heeresgruppe Afrika.[58]
  54. ^ According to Scherzer as SS-Gruppenführer and Generalleutnant of the Police.[58]
  55. ^ a b According to Scherzer as Oberleutnant of the Reserves and chief of the 4./Grenadier-Regiment 9.[58]
  56. ^ According to Scherzer on 22 October 1940.[58]
  57. ^ According to Scherzer as a battery officer in the 1./Flak-Regiment (motorized) 13.[58]
  58. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the 5.(Sturm)/Jagdgeschwader 300.[58]
  59. ^ No evidence of the award can be found in the German Federal Archives. According to Walther-Peer Fellgiebel the presentation was made by Feldmarschall Ferdinand Schörner in accordance with the enabling act of 3 May 1945, which is incorrect, because Schörner wrote to Hans Bretz on 27 June 1955 that "in the last days of the month April 1945 the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross was presented." Scherzer argues that this seems to have been a favour to Bretz because there was no communication link into the Führerhauptquartier at the end of April. The Order Commission of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) processed this case in 1982. What evidence was analyzed and processed is unknown to Scherzer. Scherzer speculates that this was based on Schörner's favour to Bretz and the AKCR decided: Knight's Cross "yes on 27 April 1945". Apparently the AKCR later were unconvinced and changed the date to 6 May 1945. Scherzer posed the question if this was done in order to declare the bestowal as a Schörner presentation. Scherzer was denied access to files, which could help clarify the case, of the AKCR on the grounds of the Bundesarchivgesetz (German Archive Law). Bretz had been a member of AKCR but left the AKCR.[60]
  60. ^ According to Scherzer as Major of the Reserves.[61]
  61. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of Flak-Bataillon 606.[61]
  62. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of Minenschiff Cobra.[61]
  63. ^ a b According to Scherzer on 31 December 1943 and pilot in the Aufklärungsstaffel 6.(F)/122/Fernaufklärungs-Gruppe 1.[61]
  64. ^ According to Scherzer as a Richtschütze (gunner) in the 14./Infanterie-Regiment 25.[61]
  65. ^ a b According to Scherzer as Hauptmann of the Reserves and chief of Panzerjäger-Kompanie 1299.[63]
  66. ^ According to Scherzer as adjutant of Panzer-Regiment 15.[63]
  67. ^ According to Scherzer as adjutant of Grenadier-Regiment 123.[63]
  68. ^ According to Scherzer as a machine gunner in the 8./Grenadier-Regiment 386.[63]
  69. ^ No evidence of the award can be found in the German Federal Archives. According to Wilhelm Bröckerhoff's own account the presentation was noted in his pay book.[65] The files of the Order Commission of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) indicate that the former divisional commander, General Hermann Schulte-Heuthaus, in 1961 remembered that he had nominated Bröckerhoff for the Knight's Cross sometime between the middle and end of March 1945. Also noted in the files of the AKCR is that Bröckerhoff's pay book was missing when Von Seemen had asked for Bröckerhoff for a copy. An additional intermittent commander, the former Commander-in-Chief of the Panzer-Korps "Großdeutschland" General Georg Jauer, stated in 1961 "that he cannot remember this case" and "that he doesn't know when the Knight's Cross was approved and when the presentation was made." Jauer also stated that "he has no doubt that after the nomination was made and submitted—as stated by Schulte-Heuthaus—that Major Bröckerhoff would have received the Knight's Cross." The nomination was definitely not received by the Heerespersonalamt (HPA—Army Staff Office)—as stated by Von Seemen—nor rejected by the HPA. Karl Dönitz, who received Jauer's letter, accepted Jauer's assumption. Dönitz wrote to Bröckerhoff: "Everything is alright!" and testified on 18 April 1961 to have awarded Bröckerhoff "the Knight’s Cross on 8 May 1945". Bröckerhoff was a member of the AKCR.[66]
  70. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the 2./Jagdgeschwader 54.[63]
  71. ^ According to Scherzer as a rifle leader in the 4./Grenadier-Regiment 330.[67]
  72. ^ a b According to Scherzer as Leutnant (war officer) and pilot in the I./Sturzkampfgeschwader 2 "Immelmann".[67]
  73. ^ According to Scherzer as chief of the 1./SS-Panzer-Pionier-Bataillon 2.[67]
  74. ^ According to Scherzer as Gruppenkommandeur of the I./Sturzkampfgeschwader 77.[67]
  75. ^ According to Scherzer on 24 June 1941.[69]
  76. ^ According to Scherzer as a Geschützführer (gun layer) in the 14./Infanterie-Regiment 253.[69]
  77. ^ a b According to Scherzer as Leutnant of the Reserves and adjutant and leader of the III./Infanterie-Regiment 508.[69]
  78. ^ According to Scherzer as a Geschützführer (gun layer) in the 1./SS-Panzer-Jäger-Abteilung 54.[72]

  83. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the II./Schlachtgeschwader 2 "Immelmann".[74]
  84. ^ a b According to Scherzer his name is spelled Max Buchholz who received the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross as a pilot in the Stab I./Jagdgeschwader 3.[74]
  85. ^ According to Scherzer as leader of the 5./SS-Kavallerie-Regiment 15.[77]
  86. ^ According to Scherzer as Oberleutnant of the Reserves.[77]
  87. ^ According to Scherzer as leader of the 1./SS-Festungs-Regiment "Besslein"/Festung Breslau (fortress Breslau).[77]
  88. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of Schnellboot S-27 respectively S-51 in the 1. Schnellbootflottille.[77]
  89. ^ No evidence of the award to Karl-Heinz Bühler can be found in the German Federal Archives. The award was presumably awarded by SS-Oberstgruppenführer Sepp Dietrich, which would make it an unlawful presentation. The Order Commission of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR) processed this case in 1977 and decided: Knight's Cross no, 1 May 1945. The case Bühler was again processed in the fall of 1983. Whether or not additional or new evidence materialized remains unknown. The Order Commission decided this time: Knight's Cross yes, 8 May 1945. Von Seemen lists him on 7 May 1945, Krätschmer states 1 May 1945. Fellgiebel later re-dated the award on 6 May 1945. It remains subject to speculation why this was done. Bühler was a member of the AKCR.[78]
  90. ^ According to Scherzer in the 4./Jagdgeschwader 2 "Richthofen".[77]
  91. ^ According to Scherzer as Geschwaderkommodore of Lehrgeschwader 1.[79]

  94. ^ According to Scherzer as Staffelführer of the Aufklärungsstaffel 1.(F)/122.[82]
  95. ^ No evidence of the award can be found in the German Federal Archives. Gerhard von Seemen in his second edition of the Die Ritterkreuzträger 1939–1945 from 1976 quotes that Manfred Büttner is listed by Böhmler Fallschirmjäger, 1. Auflage.[83] Walther-Peer Fellgiebel states about Büttner in his book: "Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients exist, who do not have official evidence in the Federal Archives, but are members of the Bundeswehr and claimed to be Knight's Cross recipients. This claim in some cases was investigated by the Militärischer Abschirmdienst (MAD—Military Counterintelligence Service ) and accepted." Büttner was a member of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR).[84][85]
  96. ^ According to Scherzer as a pilot in the Stab I./Sturzkampfgeschwader 77.[86]
  97. ^ According to Scherzer as Leutnant of the Reserves.[86]

  100. ^ According to Scherzer as commander of SS-Pionier-Bataillon 11.[86]
  101. ^ Walther-Peer Fellgiebel has struck Heinrich Burchard from the list of Knight's Cross recipients. He noted that Burchard never received the Knight's Cross but the German Cross in Gold on 15 March 1943 instead.[6]
  102. ^ a b According to Scherzer his name is Ludwig-Wilhelm Burkhardt who received the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross as a pilot in the 6./Jagdgeschwader 77.[89]
  103. ^ In 1956 Mr. Steuer, formerly the chief of Heerespersonalamt/P 5 (HPA—Army Staff Office), found a machine written Knight's Cross presentation document dated 2 May 1945 from General der Gebirgstruppe Rudolf Konrad (commanding general of the LXVIII. Armeekorps) on behalf of the Commander-in-Chief of Heeresgruppe Süd, in the personal files at the Federal Ministry of Defence of Alfred Burgemeister. Steuer had sent a copy of this document to the department "III C5" at Federal Ministry of Defence, commenting that: "this documented is to be amended to the personal files of Oberst a.D. Burgemeister in which a presentation of the Knight's Cross is not noted." The presentation, according to this document, which was made on 2 May 1945 and "on behalf of" is therefore illegal. Burgemeister was a member of the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR).[90]
