The article is citing a number of WP:QS sources such as two catalogues of Knight's Cross winners. Given the questionable sources, the level of detail is WP:UNDUE. I tagged the article accordingly.

The article quotes a source as Barkhorn having been posted at Katwijk[ZH], however Katwijk[ZH] never had
an airfield, while the airfield pointed to is located at Valkenburg[ZH]. The source of this is
any geometrical map of the Netherlands. Or ask any Dutchman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RuudZw (talk • contribs) 11:14, 22 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
The airfield according to the sources (Prien et al. 2002, p. 149. and Barbas) was located near Katwijk aan Zee, west-northwest of Leiden. MisterBee1966 (talk) 14:36, 26 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
