Just before the end of World War II he was promoted to Generalleutnant and awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords. The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross and its higher grade Oak Leaves and Swords was awarded to recognise extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership. On 19 April 1945 he was captured by members of 1st Czechoslovak Partisan Brigade of Jan Žižka, Group Olga, and became a prisoner of war. He later spent 10 years in Soviet captivity. He was released in the winter of 1955. ==Awards== * Iron Cross (1914) * * 1st Class (2 October 1914)〔Thomas 1998, p. 102.〕 * * 2nd Class (19 August 1916)〔 *Panzer Badge in Silver *Wound Badge in Black * Clasp to the Iron Cross (1939) * * 1st Class (19 September 1939)〔 * * 2nd Class (31 October 1939)〔 *German Cross in Gold o 21 February 1942 as Oberstleutnant in Schützen-Regiment 5〔Patzwall & Scherzer 2001, p. 322.〕 *Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords * * Knight's Cross on 3 May 1942 as Oberstleutnant and commander of the Schützen-Regiment 5〔Scherzer 2007, p. 555.〕〔Fellgiebel 2000, p. 317.〕 * * 272nd Oak Leaves on 16 August 1943 as Oberst and commander of Panzergrenadier-Regiment 5〔〔Fellgiebel 2000, p. 71.〕 * * 134th Swords on 20 February 1945 as Generalmajor and commander of the 16.
