Re: Knight's Cross Holders Identification
A question for the experts to solve, on this site this soldier is identified as Josef Hansen on page 152 in the KC Database. (RK: as Grenadier-Regiment 317). However, on the Traces of War site, his name appears as Franz-Josef Ganssen. (RK: as Grenadier-Regiment 159. Ganssen is the first poor-quality picture from the Traces of War site and the second image Hansen from KC Data base page 152. My personal vote goes for Ganssen, not Hansen.
