Military Knight's Cross Signatures.

This page gives brief biographies of those Knight's Cross winners who have signed our prints.  We aim to provide some detail on the service history of the signatory - perhaps details of tanks served in or battles fought, and can occasionally provide a photograph too.

Oberstleutnant Alfred Rubbel

Joining the Panzer forces in 1940, Alfred Rubbel served first with Panzer Regiment 29 in Mittel and the with Panzer Regiment 4 in the Caucasus. He transferred to the Tiger I Panzer and from March 1943 to May 1945 served, as Tank Commander, with Heavy Panzer Division 503. He was awarded the Iron Cross I and II, and had 57 Panzer victories from 79 Panzer battles.
