On 21 June 1941, as the Wehrmacht stormed forward across frontiers of the Soviet Union, Hitler instituted a new higher grade
of the Knight's Cross decoration for galantry and leadership: the silver clasp of the Oak-leaves with Swords. It would be
awarded to only 159 men of the approximately 15 million who served in the German armed forces during World War II. This third
in a sequence of four titles describes and illustrates a selection of the recipients: from much-wounded front line infantry
officers, to Hitler's 'brother-in-law'; from a sergeant pilot fighter ace, to the commanding general of the greatest tank
force ever gathered on the Russian Front.
