Hans Strelow (26 March 1922 – 22 May 1942) was a German former Luftwaffe fighter ace and recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves ((ドイツ語:Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub)) during World War II. The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross and its higher grade Oak Leaves was awarded to recognise extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership. He received the award two days before his 20th birthday making him the youngest recipient of the Oak Leaves. To avoid capture by the Red Army Strelow committed suicide after he was shot down by a Petlyakov Pe-2 twin-engine bomber in Bf 109 F-2 "Black 10" (''Werknummer'' 8239—factory number). He had made a forced landing behind Soviet lines. ==Awards== * Iron Cross (1939) * * 2nd Class (5 July 1941)〔Thomas 1998, p. 362.〕 * * 1st Class (14 September 1941)〔 * Ehrenpokal der Luftwaffe on 24 November 1941 as ''Leutnant'' and pilot〔Patzwall 2008, p. 201.〕 * Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves * * Knight's Cross on 18 March 1942 as ''Leutnant'' and ''Staffelführer'' of the 5./JG 51 "Mölders"〔Scherzer 2007, p. 731.〕〔Fellgiebel 2000, pp. 415, 505.〕 * * 84th Oak Leaves on 24 March 1942 as ''Leutnant'' and pilot in the 5./JG 51 "Mölders"〔〔Fellgiebel 2000, p. 59.〕 * Mentioned in the ''Wehrmachtbericht'' on 18 June 1942 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans Strelow」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
