That depends, higher awards (like silver/mattweiß) could be given for only one wound (schwere/schwerste Verwundung), if eye was lost, arm was amputated and so on. Maybe Mike can help with "16.07.1918 Commander’s Cross of the Royal Bulgarian Military Service Order with War Decoration" ... Commander (normally for colonels) for a Leutnant? Or should that read 1938? Thanks!

Hello, Michael, thanks for the great information. I do have a question or two: Many sources say, Lutze joined the army as an officer candidate in 1912, but some sources say Einjährig-Freiwilliger. Seeing he became Postassistant, he could hardly become an officer candidate? So did he return to the Reichspost 1913 and was called to duty 1914 as Unteroffizier der Reserve? Becoming, like Glenn wrote, Vizefeldwebel d. R. and Leutnant d. R.? Any help would be great. Did he have three (Inge, Viktor and Adolf „Addi“) or four children? Thanks! Picture of 1 May 1943, the day of the accident (Leutnant Viktor Jr. seems to be wearing EK2, Panzerkampabzeichen, Riding Badge and Wound Badge in Black):

Heer Veiel, Rudolf

Good evening, Gentlemen? Do you have any idee what kind of breast star Veiel is wearing (left)? Thanks! -
Gentlemen, Julius Friedrich Wilhelm Hilmar von Bernuth has as of the Rangliste 1914 only ZM, RAO4 and Dienstauszeichnungskreuz. Does anyone know if he received decorations for his time in China? Also I would love to know his WW I decorations except for EK II and I and HOH3x. A picture would be magnificent. Thanks!

These are the decorations I have now listed for Leo von Bernuth, any additions or corrections would be great: Kaiserliche Kriegsdenkmünze 1870/71 mit acht Gefechtsspangen Orden vom Zähringer Löwen, Ritterkreuz II.

8 out of 25 possible ... not bad at all! But no EK II??? Was Leo von Bernuth reactivated 1914? Maybe then EK II or even I? Thanks! Do I have the right one: Ludwig August Friedrich Leopold „Leo“ von Bernuth (b. 7 April 1851 in Burtscheid by Aachen)? If yes, his brother was Generalmajor Julius Friedrich Wilhelm Hilmar von Bernuth (1861--1957)?!

Please let me add for Werner Schön (after 1922 Schoen), also kaiserlich ottomanischer Oberstleutnant (he probably went around 1916 to Turkey after Africa?). His brother Hans Ludwig Ernst Schön, after 1922 Schoen, was allowed on 13 May 1925 to change his name in "Schoen von Wildenegg". This brother raised the two daughters (born 1920 and 1922) of our Major a. D., they also received the addition "Schoen von Wildenegg".

Did he make Major (looking at his epaulettes)? What is the third decoration from the right? Thanks! Oh, wait, how stupid of me. Hanseatenkreuz Lübeck. I found this: Ernst Friedrich Werner (* 22. September 1875; † 30. Juni 1923), Direktor der Jäger-Rothe-Siemens-Werke ⚭ 1919 Olga Mascha Minlos (* 26. April 1897; † 29. November 1923) ... his wife died very young, only months after him. Maybe suicide?
