Dave Danner Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 A little over 100 Military Merit Crosses 2nd Class were awarded to members of the regiment before Mecklenburg-Schwerin stopped gazetting the award in mid-1917. Probably a bunch more afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Danner Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Nice picture! I know of at least 5 officers with the ÖM3K. Any idea who the one on the far right is? As far as I know, there is no regimental history, so I doubt there is a complete list of officers anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
