Ernst Storch, DKiG Holder

[Edward L. Hsiao]

Gentlemen,

SS-Rottenführer Ernst Storch was awarded the German Cross in Gold on March 30,1945 while serving with 6/SS-Panzer Regiment 10,10 SS-Panzer Division "Frundsberg".
Was there a recommendation available telling why was he deserving the high award?
Was he ever put up for the Knight's Cross before?
Thank you.

Sincerely,

Edward L. Hsiao

Gentlemen,

I wonder if SS-Rottenfuhrer Ernst Storch was a panzer commander? Anything yet you can come out with him?

Sincerely,

Edward L. Hsiao
