Erich Hartmann - Top Ace of All Time
Biography of the highest scoring ace of the war.
Earlier in the war, 25 or 50 victories would have earned a German fighter pilot the Knight's Cross
By late 1943, Hartmann had to down 148 before he earned his Knight's Cross
The Diamonds He was awarded the Third Reich's highest regularly awarded military decoration: The Knight's Cross to the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds
To be accurate, the highest military decoration was 'The Grand Cross to the Iron Cross.' It was only awarded once to Hermann Göring
The second highest military decoration was 'The Knight's Cross to the Iron Cross with Golden Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds' and was also awarded only once to the Stuka ace Hans-Ulrich Rudel
Thus, Hartmann's medal, 'The Knight's Cross to the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds, ' was, to be precise, the third highest German military decoration through WW2, was awarded to 27 soldiers, 12 of whom were Luftwaffe pilots
Near the end of WWII, in early May 1945, the Luftwaffe command ordered Hartmann, then Gruppenkommandeur of famous Jagdgeschwader 52, and his Commodore , Hermann Graf (another pilot, who had earned the 'diamonds' to the Knight's Cross) to fly to the British sector

The primitive form of the cross seems to have been that of the so-called 'gamma' cross ( crux gammata ), better known to Orientalists and students of prehistoric archæology by its Sanskrit name, swastika
Another symbol which has been connected with the cross is the ansated cross ( ankh or crux ansata ) of the ancient Egyptians, wrongly called the 'ansated key of the Nile'
