Offered for sale is a 130 x 170mm or 5 x 6-3/4 inch document in which SS-Brigadeführer and Major General of the Waffen-SS Gustav Krukenberg informs the SS Main Personnel Office in Berlin that he has been awarded the Iron Cross, First Class (EK I), as commander of *Kampfgruppe Krukenberg* in Riga. Anything signed by him before 1945 is extremely rare.
Krukenberg was a high-ranking member of the Waffen-SS and commander of the SS Charlemagne Division and the remains of the SS Division Nordland during the Battle of Berlin in April 1945. After Krukenberg surrendered to Soviet Red Army troops, he was tried, convicted and sentenced to prison by a Soviet court. He was released from prison after serving 11 years and died on 23 October 1980 in Germany.
