Korvettenkapitän Wegner.
Has anyone heard of the above person or have any information on him? Was he entitled to wear the Ritterkreuz?

Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.

But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Thanks Paul, I couldn't find any Kriegsmarine RKT with that name either.

Looks like he also wasn't a DKiG winner unless he was very late war !!

Re: Korvettenkapitän Wegner.
Ok, thank you again Paul. The reason I ask is because I've just picked up a marked 1957 EK2 that comes with a ribbon with an elastic attachment for wearing around the neck. It reportedly came from the estate of a Korvettenkapitän Wegner who served upon the Zerstörer Rommel. Link to the ship here.
It cost no more than a regular EK2 and I bought it because I don't have a marked 1957 EK2 so no problem there. I was just curious as to the provenance behind it.

Adrian: Are you sure of the family name spelling? Here is a link to Korvettenkapitän Edward Wegener, but I don't know if this is the fellow you're looking for. Dwight
