The second Knights-cross owner from our village was Willi Hägele, a friend of my grandfather

Henry, I splitted this from the Knight's cross holders identification since that thread is for identification of unidentified Knight's cross holders.

By the way, what village is it, Göppingen?

Best regards/ Daniel

Not completely, its Salach, Göppingen is our district town.
