Hey,

if you look here you will see that award, but without any dates:

[historisches-marinearchiv.de]


That archive is propably one of the best about NAMES and IT IS ONLINE.

NACHNAME means LAST NAME
VORNAME means SURNAME

You must use the german "UMLAUTE" (special characters like "ä" "ö" "ü" and "ß") because MULLER is in german normally unknown

"MÜLLER" will bring the hits ... and Muiller will NOT WORK.
So: Paste and Copy these characters if you think it is a name where they are used.
It is very important.

Nowadays it is also common to write mueller if the special key "ü" is not available. But in this search system this does not work.
"ae" is also not equal "ä" and "oe" is not "ö".
Don't search for "GOERLITZ" if you know that name was spelled "GÖRLITZ" but be aware that there might be also families that wrote the same name "GOERLITZ" depending on their family papers.

so far so good - but now you should be able to find some regular crewman in that online database.
