Hi Glenn & Gunnar,
Great info. I had no idea that his connection with the air-force went back so far.
Was his date of promotion to Hauptmann the same as the date of his retirement?
He may have been assigned to the command of an Armee-Flugpark or a Flieger-Ersatz-Abteilung after leaving AFA 214.
I wonder if there was any stipulation about the maximum age of a FFA leader during the war....?
Thanks for bringing this interesting character back to life.
Matt.

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any info. about this man (DOB, service record, promotion dates etc.). All I know is that he was the (first?) commander of AFA 214/FAA 214 and later wrote the book "Die Deutschen Luftstreitkrafte Im Weltkriege."
Thanks a lot,
Matt.

Hello again,
I have another signature which I would like identified, if someone would be so kind.
It is of a Hauptmann and Stabsoffizier der Flieger in 1915.
Thanks and regards,
Matt.

Fascinating stuff!
Is there any mention of the personnel of the army flying units operating in this theatre: FA 16, FA 37 and FA (A) 214?
Thanks for sharing - I will continue to watch this thread with interest

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the information. That is a super photo!
I searched for more details about the career of August Dittmar, however I couldn't find anything...
Do you happen to have any knowledge of his wartime postings / promotions?
Happy new year!
Matt.

Dear all,
Can anyone help with the second group of photos?
I think that the last name (Kommandeur der Flieger 2) is Seraphim, but what about the others?
And who's signature is against photo number 6 from the first grouping?
Thanks a lot,
Matt.

Hi,
Does the Saxon Albert Order award roll show which Flieger-Abteilung he was serving in?
Thanks,

Hi Gunnar,
Thanks for your reply. So there are two men named Liesner that were both promoted to Hptm !
Maybe they were related ?
