Isn't the german cross also a name for the sign of German Bundeswehr? Like the sign right of the 98 here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Euro_luftwaffe.jpg
Could someone please point me to the Reichsgesetzblatt that inaugurates the German Cross in Gold? Many references I find point to 28 September 1941 as the date is was inaugurated. However when searching the archives near this date or on this date I only find two legislations RGBl. I S 613 pertaining to the second change to Iron Cross (adding the Swords and Diamonds), and RGBl. I S 614 referring to the War Merit Cross. Neither of both legislations fit to the German Cross in Gold. MisterBee1966 10:35, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Hi MisterBee
The cross was created on 16 November 1941.While writing the Hans-Joachim Marseille article I came across a good source (his biography) that quoted this date. Marseille was among the first to receive this award on 1 December '41.
Are you confusing this with the German cross in silver? That award was created on the 28th September 1941. The 'cross' in Gold came afterwards.

Isn't saying that it had a "rather gaudy design" a bit un- NPOV? -- MacAddct 1984 ( talk • contribs) 15:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
