Also, anybody still in the military who won a Nazi era Iron Cross is still authorized to wear the original.
I'll never forget being at the Casino in Monaco and looking over to see a silvered old gent in a tux wearing the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves. I wish I had gone over to find out who he was
I have also had in my hands the highest Ritter Kreutz ever awarded. This was when I met Hans Ulrich Rudel in Bolivia in 1980.
