That's a good question Erich..were they being re-affirmed?
Some thoughts..considering there are entries on holder's deaths (in combat, purge and through natural occurrences and accidents etc..) perhaps they were updating the list and the notations were made to show that the recipients were still in possession of the award, or were still eligible.
It also looks like this list was updated in the tumultuous 6 months following the July 20th bomb plot, in which everyone, even a Blood Order holder, could be suspect in regards to their loyalty.Remember in this period, there was the second big purge of party members and others who were deemed disloyal to the regime.
If we could find another updated list (if one exists..) we would probably see more holders deceased as the war came to a violent conclusion in the last one year +
It is possible that the dates we see under some are when they were updated (in a previous list..) with the latter update being 19.1.44
It would also be interesting to see if all the holder listed as being 'purged' during operation Hummingbird, are listed in the official tally of men killed.
