Document Grouping for Luftwaffe Pilot-This includes the award document for the pilot badge and the Iron Cross 1st Class. The recipient was Obergefreiten/Oberfeldwebel Johannes Heinz. The pilots badge is very early, dated 26 Juni 1937 as an obergefreiten. The EKI is signed by Kesselring as a General because this is just before he officially became a Feldmarschal and was awarded on 23 Juni 1940 while he was assigned to Stab. I./L.G.l. Heinz was a JU88 pilot and was listed as MIA in the Mediterranean. Both are in fine condition!
