Thanks folks

A very stern-looking man. The 3rd & 4th medals appear to be identical, to my untrained eye. Does anyone know what awards these are on his ribbon bar?

I'm feeling left out! Some award docs for Hptm Fritz v Steuben (the KO3 is not his):- https://www.hermann-historica.de/de/auctions/lot/id/304294

A new first name - Lt dR Louis Schuchardt, from the Kasseler Neueste Nachrichten dated 13th Dec 1917. He was also awarded the SMK whilst with RIR 233 (Erfurter Allgemeiner Anzeiger publication dated 21st June 1915).

Here's another recipient

Many thanks for the added info

Hi all, There was a small book about IR 149 on ebay some time ago. One of the pictures shows Oblt Baske wearing the Prussian observer's badge. I don't have any more info on him, and unfortunately the seller did not reply to my requests for information. But at least I can add another Fliegertruppe officer to my Hohenzollern recipients list.

This guy looks familiar. Can anyone read the name please?

Thanks a lot !!!

Unknown officer with LOTS of awards

Hi Deutschritter, I have the same awards as you show. Except that I wasn't aware of the Baltenkreuz....

Luftwaffe Oberst Carl Seber
