Full Description

This third volume examines 116 German generals awarded the Knight's Cross during the invasion of the Soviet Union and its subsequent retreat. The recipients include two Generaloberst, nineteen full generals, fifty-three Generalleutnant, and forty-two Generalmajor.

The surrender of the German 6th Army at Stalingrad marked a major turning point. Generalfeldmarschall Friedrich Paulus and Generaloberst Walter Heitz were captured, and five generals were killed. Five posthumous Knight's Cross awards were granted to Ernst Haccius, Hans Kamecke, Karl von Lersner, Heinrich Recke, and Walter Schilling. Additionally, four generals received the Knight's Cross with Oakleaves for exceptional leadership and bravery.

Major Otto-Ernst Remer, later promoted to Generalmajor in 1945, was among the Oakleaves recipients. Known for his bold command style, he suppressed the 20 July 1944 plot against Hitler and was promoted to Oberst. After the war, Remer formed a controversial right-wing political party, later banned, and settled in Spain following imprisonment.

Johannes Friessner and Carl Hilpert were the highest-ranking Knight's Cross recipients during this period. Friessner was awarded the Knight's Cross in 1943 and promoted to Generaloberst, leading Army Group South before his dismissal by Hitler in 1944. Hilpert, recognized for leading the LIV Army Corps during the Soviet Summer Offensive of 1944, received the Oakleaves from Hitler himself.

This book provides detailed accounts of their achievements, awards, and wartime careers, offering a comprehensive study of leadership and valor during this pivotal WWII era.
