    3. I know you have him already, but here is some award info for Hptm Oscar Hartung. From the Gothaische Zeitung dated 10th April 1918:-
    4. Hi Daniel, Make that 402! Rittm Walter Heymann (also served in Flieger Abt 256). From the Dresdner Nachrichten dated 14.01.1933.
    5. Not sure if he has been listed already: Lt dR Karl Lehmann - IR 94 https://zs.thulb.uni-jena.de/rsc/viewer/jportal_derivate_00258970/JVB_19190225_047_167758667_B1_004.tif?logicalDiv=jportal_jpvolume_00303375&q="Karl Lehmann"

    8. The guy at far right looks like he is wearing the retired aviators badge. If so, he is rather old for a pilot...
    9. A rather high-ranking one, who I could not find in the MWB. Oberst aD Ludwig Haushalter
    10. Lt dR Arthur Rahn. You can see the award date if you download the high-resolution photos. https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit/Museum-Exhibits/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/908890/german-ace-and-us-citizen-lt-arthur-rahn/
    11. Hi all, This snippet about Lt Hans Müller is from the book on IR 142. I would like to know more about him (date of birth, date of awards etc.). Thanks!
    12. Hi Daniel, Sorry I don't have anything on the WW1 career of Jans, and only one other newspaper clipping. Thanks to all for the additional info on Zeininger! Scratch that, I have found a Lt dR Josef Jans in the verlustlisten. Lightly wounded with IR 394. His date of birth matches the online records. Not much, but something at least. https://www.lagis-hessen.de/pnd/1115669370
    13. Leutnant dL Heinrich Zeininger (see page 8). Born 1867 ! http://gartentexte-digital.ub.tu-berlin.de/archiv/Gartenkunst/Jg.52/B09.pdf
    14. Rudolf Fischer from the 1942 edition of 'Garten Kunst'. Born 15 Dec 1883 in Berlin. See page 9 of the first file, and page 2 of the second link for details of his EK1. He was from GGR 3 and RIR 262. The book on the latter regiment notes his HOH3x award on page 238. He appears a few times in the verlustlisten. http://gartentexte-digital.ub.tu-berlin.de/archiv/Gartenkunst/Jg.55/B10.pdf http://gartentexte-digital.ub.tu-berlin.de/archiv/Gartenkunst/Jg.30/Anhang1.pdf http://dfg-viewer.de/show?tx_dlf[double]=0&tx_dlf[id]=http%3A%2F%2Fdigital.wlb-stuttgart.de%2Fmets%2Furn%3Anbn%3Ade%3Absz%3A24-digibib-kxp16632258343%2Furn%3Anbn%3Ade%3Absz%3A24-digibib-kxp16632258343.xml&tx_dlf[page]=270&cHash=6c3ecab334e9f6328518f1cc348b779b
    15. Great work! Here is a 1932 article relating to a Josef Jans (b. 1894). I cannot find him in the MWB or any other publications from the war era. http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/periodika/periodical/pageview/3430365?query=segelflieger hausorden
    16. Not sure if this is a new name or not - Oblt dR Georg Stephan from Altenburg. IR 153, died 1922. One more - Lt Karl Weber. His name is so common that it might be difficult to find out more about him :- http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/periodika/periodical/pageview/7244269?query=Hohenzollern
    17. Major von Reckow from FAR 63. I can't find him in the MWB or the Staatsanzeiger. http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/periodika/periodical/pageview/6944977?query=Hausorden 1917
    18. Hi Deruelle, Yes I am referring to the same Oblt Hans Clausen who was awarded the SH3 while serving with FA 230 in 1917. Best Regards, Matt.
    19. Lt dR Oswald Hoffmann, and Rittm dR Arnold Hoffmann (the latter death notice is from 1935)
