Hi Kaiser:

Oberleutnant Horst Kerfin (*21.03.1913 + 22.01.1943) at Heraklion on 28 May 1941. By Crete, he was chef of 11./FJR1.

Hope this helps. Regards.

Can any one identify the Last Fallschirmjager in the photo?

Hello Kaiser,

Why don´t you get Biblio Verlag´s excellent book about the KC holders of the Fallschirmjäger units? There you get photos, all dates known about battles, awards etc of every Green devil.

Hello

Ludwig is right ! This book is a 'must have' if you are interested by both FSJ troops and KC holders. You will find it for example in Detlev Niemann's or Helmut Weitze's respective website. It cost about 80-85 EUR but it's worth buying it.
Regards
Denis

Hi all.
First I want to thank you all for being so helpfull.
Jacques, there is no problem, I'll wait till next week for the photos.
Fallschirmartz, thanks for the photos, the info and links.
Ludwig and Denis: I would like to have Biblio Verlag's book, but 80-85 EUR is too much money for me. The exchange here in argentina is 1 EUR = 3,75 Pesos, that would be 300-318 Pesos, that's a lot of money for a book here in my
country
Hope one day I can buy it, maybe in the year 2050

Best regards for all,

KAISER
