Profiles German generals awarded the Knight's Cross during the final months of World War II, detailing their actions and fates.
The fourth in a series of books that examine German officers who were promoted to the rank of general and who were also awarded the Knight's Cross, this volume covers the last months of the Second World War. During the period from 13 February 1944 to Germany's surrender on 9 May 1945, there were 115 generals who received the award. This total comprised eighteen full Generals; fifty-eight Generalleutnants and thirty-nine Generalmajors.
One of these men was Generalleutnant Gustav Heistermann von Ziehlberg, who was awarded the Knight's Cross, on 27 July 1944, whilst Commander of the 28th Jäger Division for actions in the Soviet Union. However he was arrested by the Gestapo in November 1944 in connection with the July bomb Description against Hitler. He was later stripped of all awards and executed by firing squad on 2 February 1945.
On 26 March 1944, General der Infanterie Hans Krebs was awarded the Knight's Cross and in February 1945 he received the Knight's Cross with Oakleaves. During the last weeks of the war he served as Acting Chief of Operations Staff of the Army General Staff, succeeding Generaloberst Heinz Guderian who had been sacked by Hitler. Krebs moved his headquarters to Hitler's bunker during the last days of the Reich and after Hitler's suicide he met up with Soviet generals to try and negotiate Germany's surrender, but this failed. Together with General Wilhelm Burgdorff, he shot himself later that same day.
With each individual's entry there is a detailed description of how and where the Knight's Cross was won.
