That should be in the MWO book I mentioned earlier, to. Maybe some ULB has it in its collection?

Documentation on the Militaire Willems orde is really extensive. Looking him up would not be a difficulty at all. In my local library, I only have tha 1940< though (there are basically 2 volumes, one before and one after WWII)

Hi Wild Card, About the hannoverian and orders: would you have such a state handbook foor Hannover (Send you a PM 2)? Thanks again! David

Hi Bernd! That was the one I hoped to get for my birthday in 2 weeks!!

Well that's a bit what I expected. The prussian REO and the saxons being the onlyones of their kind. I hoped for some more though (including the not only for militairy awards, like the Hannoverian Guelphen or Ernst-August order and stuff like that. But thanks a lot.

Hi! I am looking for pre 1866 awards lists which were published, like the Red-Eagle-Order I and II from 1810-1854 (which I hope to get for my birthday in 2 weeks) and the saxon. Are there any other like that covering the german countries for that periode (basically 1770-1866)? Hope you can inform me! Thanks David

Thanks Chris!!

Hi Gents, sicne I could not find it by searching the forum, I would like to try in this new thread to find a picture of the 1890< Schaumburg-Lippe House Order of the Honor Cross III and IV Class. Thanks David

Hi Gents Well I seem to have lost the copy I made of the page with the awards mentioned in the 1908/09 DOA for M?ldner von M?lnheim, Georg (which actually list the awards of his brother, Louis)..... I can remember there were 3, but just not which ones. From the top of my head it would me PrZM, SchLEhrenkreuz IV, Fstl. Reuss Ehrenkreuz III (was this the Reuss j.L. or a.L.?) Thanks David

Dear Gents A member of this forum, by the name of Glenn J (whom I have much to thank for ), added to my knowledge of the career of Georg Emil Theodor M?ldner von M?lnheim the following: 22.3.1917 Major und Bataillonschef des II. Bataillons Reserve-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 220, K?mpfe in Russland, 15.5.1918 dem Kriegsministerium ?berwiesen, 17.5.1918 Milit?rkommission Kiew, 9.11.1918 Bevollm?chtigter des Kriegsministeriums f?r die Ukraine, Gesandtschaft Kiew, 1.3.1919 demobilisiert, 24.7.1919 Versorgungsabteilung des Kriegsministerium, 9.4.1920 Abschied mit Pension und mit der Range als Oberstleutnant. I have 2 questions: 1. Are there any sources (literature) covering the german presence in the Ukrain, would there be a possible picture of GvM in it? 2. Would there be a chance his decorations are mentioned somewhere? 3. Was he attached to the Gesandtschaft in Kiew as the Bev?llmachtigter des Kriegsministerium, as I understand correctly? I am interested not only in a possible source of his deco's, but in the germans in the ukraine in general and in 1918 in particular. Thanks a lot David

That really is an amazing bar! Do you have the data of who it belonged to....or should that be whom.... David

Beautriful bar, the little training I have had in this and the WAF-forum make me recognize all but the one right to the japanese order...is it a redcross award? David

Well that's very intersteing Eitze, I would be especially interested in the 1909 volume by Dalwigk-Lichtenfels. Best chance there is some on the 1831 Waldeck officers in there right! Thanks again!! David

Thanks! I will try and see if it measures to my small budget! Thanks again David

That would be great, thanks Bob!!

Hi Gents! When Kurhessen was occupied by Prussia in 1866, its militairy went over to the prussian army. In one of the Husars Regiments, the kurhessian Garde-Gendarmerie (2 officers and 33 men) was incorporated. I think it went into the 13th, but I am not sure. Would anyone have the regimental history of either of these 2 regiments and could you tell me if there is any mentioning of the incorporation of the Garde-Gendarmerie? Hope you can help me out here!(I already tried the WAF, no luck there yet) Thanks a lot David

Hi Gents, recently I found resources for the Lippe and Schaumburg-Lippe militairy in the 19th century. I did not yet find such a source for the militairy of Waldeck&Pyrmont. I know it probably wasn't much, but I would really like to know if you can tell me about a book or article you know of... Thanks David

Althoug I could not find it at first, this site proved to be very interesting: www.preussenweb.de It gives an overview of the Standorte of the different prussian husars and infantry regiments The regiments involved in theLuxemburg area were: Infanterie-Regiment Nr 16 Freiherr von Sparr Infanterie-Regiment Nr 19 von Corbiere and a Schwadron of Uhlanen-Regiment Nr 6 Would anyone have one of the histories written on the Infanterie-Regiment Freiherr von Sparr, Regiment Corbiere or Uhlanen-Regiment Nr 6? That would be such a great help David

Hi Gents! Would it be possible to find out which prussian units made up the Besatzung of the Bundesfestung Luxemburg during the Bundesexekution of 1831? I know that during the execution there was a rserve send consisting out of Waldeck, Schaumburg-Lippe and Lippe militair. Hope you can help me out here! Thanks David

Hi Gents! On Dave Danners site, he mentions the award rolls for Schaumburg-Lippe, som 10,000 awards for the loyal service cross during WWI. Are these published anywhere? Thanks David

Dank!

Hi Mike Thanks for the info, I found that 2 but am not sure about the legibility of the site and I was looking for more historical data on the order David

Would anyone of you have an idea on where to find out some info or the historical registers of the tuscan order of st joseph? Google did not seem to really work.... Thanks David
