Hugo Guttmann, A German-Jewish Officer and veteran of the Great War. He would later put in and award Hitler the Iron Cross which was only awarded to non enlistment personal in the German Army.
He received the Iron Cross, second class and the Iron Cross, first class during WW1.
Question a bit cryptic. Hitler earned 2 medals during the WW I, and those where the iron cross of the 1:st degree and of the 2:nd degree. ---
Yes. He was once wounded in the thigh by shrapnel and once temporarily blinded by poison gas. He later received the Iron Cross 1st Class and 2nd Class and a wound badge for his service.Although Hitler was not a Prussian [he was Austrian], he was a decorated warrior who earned his 6 medals in WW1 - they were not just given to him. Hitler was a Corporal, and it was very rare for someone who was not an Officer to receive the Iron Cross First Class. [Interestingly, this Iron Cross was awarded on the recommendation of his officer who just happened to be jewish!] .
