Guest Rick Research Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 But you were supposed to go look through all the receipts at the Archive !!!!!! How about these guys, home in Detmold on leave in March 1918-- the Unteroffizier and Vizefeldwebel in Hessian Life Guard Infantry Regiment 115 ( ) and the sender in IR 457-- Wehrmann St?lting. St?lting and the Vizefeldwebel both have an EK2 and LKr. Vizefeldwebel has no HT, can't see the 2nd ribbon on the Uffz's ribbon bar clearly--just the cipher on his shoulder strap ID'ing their unit. WHAT on EARTH were they (VII AK homeboys) doing in the XVIII AK Hessian Guards???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHAT on EARTH were they (VII AK homeboys) doing in the XVIII AK Hessian Guards????????Hi Rick,may I introduce Wilhelm Hackemack from Detmold to you?I have some of his papers (incl. the WW2-"Wehrpass"), showing the entries "Eisernes Kreuz 2.Klasse" and Lippische Verdienstmedaille".Hackemack got the military merit medal Lippe-Detmold and I think your guys, too Please compare the wearing of the ribbon...@RaZpuTiNVery nice cross! It looks like silver guilted...a late cross from WW1, right?Best regardsSolomon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 EDIT: A second view on Rick?s photos makes a war merit cross Lippe-Detmold also possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian J Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 @RaZpuTiNVery nice cross! It looks like silver guilted...a late cross from WW1, right?Best regardsSolomonYes, i would also take it for an late war example. This was the first cross of the Lippe-Detmolds Hausorders that I had the pleasure to fiddle with hands on, of course with the mandatory cottongloves. Unfortunatly somebody with a bigger wallet wanted it more than me. The hardships are plentyful when in the arms of higher education, i'll just have to bide my time.

Solomon Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hi folks,this photo drives me crazy! Probabely you have seen it before... This bavarian guy (a noncombatant) is wearing a house-order 2nd class, house-order 3th class on his "Frackspange" and a NC-war merit cross Lippe-Detmold. This picture was taken in Munich, surely after 1918 (Kyffh?user-medal on the bar).I have no idea, who this man was...and there is no hint on him.Does anybody have additional hints?Best regardsRoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 That is great, thank you. Now we have a face to go with the award.Incidentally, from the 1913 Bavarian Hof und Staats Handbuch - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
