Hi Glenn, I tried sending you a message, but it didn't work. Mayby your inbox is full?

Anyhow, here's my question:

I may use the image on the link for an article I'm writing about the Schaumburg-Lippe Cross for Loyal Service, but I'm baffled as to why a retired soldier would wear an WH eagle on an otherwise imperial uniform:

Do you have insight about this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

All the best,

Antti

Hello Glenn;

You were recommended to me as a great source for information and photos on German generals. 

Are there any photos of Major-General Ernst Roessler?  

He was an Oberst in 1912 with IR of Voigts-Rhetz #79(3rd Hanover) and reached the rank of Major General by WWI.  

Please feel free to PM me.

Thank you,

Claudius

Hi Glenn,

I am researching the writing of Official Histories of the Great War and see from the posts you have Vol 13. and Vol 14 of  Der Welkrieg.

Be aware the 1956 printing are facsimile reprints, and the main differences in the 1956 printing is Bundesarchiv on the spine, an additional introduction and the maps are in black and white, though some people have coloured in the black and white maps.

I am researching is to understand if Vol. 13 published in 1942 are numbered individually , and if Vol. 14 ever came out in 1944. 

So are your copies the 1942 and 1944 editions, and if so are they number on the title page labelled Nr. *

Many thanks in advance  for any help,

Martin
