Hi everybody, I remember that several years ago, one german dealer sold the Pour le M?rite of Oberst Krause. And two years ago I see one paar of Oberst'shoulderboards from I.R. Nr. 185. If only I could find the medal bar to go with my ribbon bar. Regards Christophe

Hi everybody, Please find one photo of Saxon Oberst L?ddecke. Have a look of the beautiful medal bar. Regards Christophe

Sorry Rick, in the Kube's auction there are not illustration. Dr Sommer belonged to I.R. Nr. 94. That's all I have for the moment. I will look for old auctions catalogs and maybe I can find something. Regards Christophe

Rick, In the last Kube's auction, two documents have been sold. They belonged to Stabsarzt Dr Sommer from I.R. Nr. 94 First one, he received the SF3b in 10 june 1914. And he received the same medal with X on 10 april 1915. I hope these informations can help you. Regards Christophe
