    Hello Chris,

    only one but in my opinion an interesting one :jumping:

    Vzfw. Müller received his MEZ 1 in 1913 (AKO 11th June 1913). His EK2 should be also a colonial award, because Vzfw. Müller served also in GEA during the World War.

    Best wishes

    Great photo! Do you have more information about the man, his service and how he earned his MEZ1?

    Hello,

    unfortunately I do not know for what he received his MEZ1.

    I know only that he served later in the Wehrmacht. I will posts the 2 other photos later.

    Best wishes

    I thought this one of Lt. Assmann of RIR 254 was a little different. It appears in the regimental history and the caption states that he received his EKII on 19.8.1915.
