Thanks to all of you, gentleman. I really hope we are right, but there are some points I want to discuss: 1.) Shame on me, I stopped screening the W?rttemberg Staatshandbuch 1914, when I found Wanner, so I have to complete the work next time to be shure. 2.) Shouldn?t it be a civilian "Frackspange" then this kind of a bar, normally worn by officers? 3.) Is there any chance to find Wanner in a list of some of the other decorations? 4.) Are there any other sources, then the W?rttemberg Staatshandbuch and the Wer ist?s to search for Wanner? 5.) No Prussian decoration in 1914 and then 5 in the next 4 years - isn?t that to much? With regards, Komtur.

Hallo Forumites, I was asked by another collector to show this bar here in the GMIC. He is a serious collector and author of order articles and books. The bar was shown twice without success in the German forum SDA. By any reason he believes, it could be a W?rttemberg Oberstabsarzt. Btw. the only not German decoration is a Belgium Order of the Crown knight cross. With regards, Komtur.

Hallo Micha, unfortunately no luck with the "Stammliste der Kaiser Wilhelms-Akademie f?r das milit?r?rztliche Bildungswesesn". That means he did his medical studies not there, may be on a civilien university. In the Ordensalmanach 1908/09 is also no Wittichen to be found. The oldest Prussian ranklist I?ve got is 1884 - no Wittichen . Probably he was not a Sanit?tsoffizier, but a civilien medical docter serving behind the front in 1870/71 without a military rank or with a non officers rank. Then it will be difficult to find something. Can you show us this bar, please With regards, Komtur.

Klasse f?r Hauptmann Fritz Vieth IR 459 vom 8.8.1918 4.) Braunschweig Bew?hrungsabzeichen zum Kriegsverdienstkreuz Hauptmann Fritz Vieth IR 459 vom 26.9.1918 The scans on Ebay were bad and before I was able to bid, the document group was canceled With regards, Komtur.
