Re: Stubaf Karl Schmitz, RSHA, DK/Gold, Bandenkampfabz-Silve
Would there have been a photo in "Das Schwarz Korps" when his DK/Gold was awarded 2 July 1944 ?
If anybody is able to advise it would be appreciated.
I have never had such a struggle to find a photo of an officer and this one was awarded DK/G !
Thanks
