Hi gentlemen! A very nice pic of Ernst Bernhard von Uechtritz u.Steinkirch. Is this the same von Uechtritz u.Steinkirch who was Kommandant of Tr. ?bpl. Sennelager from 1932 - 1933? Many thanks for any help, VJK
Hi! The officer in the picture is wearing the uniform of a Vice-Admiral. There were only 5 VAd (or above) Tanaka and only two were VAd in 1929 - Kotaro and Morihide, but both were in the second reserve stage at that date, which would make them unlikely candidates IMHO. I suspect we are looking for a different surname. Regards, VJK
Hi! I just saw the excellent portrait of Admiral Nanaka. Unfortunately, there was no Admiral of that name. Could you give any more information to help track down his real identity? Best regards, VJK
Hello Ian, This is the little I have on the 2 generals: Generalleutnant Eugen Ritter von Zoellner Kdr. 2. Bavarian Infantry Division: 8 Feb 1917 - ? Kdr. 6. Bavarian Infantry Division: 20 Dec 1918 - 19 Jun 1919 Kom. Gen. III Bavarian Army Corps: 19 Jun 1919 - 28 Sep 1919 Generalmajor Ernst Freiherr von Gersdorff (1864-1926) Best regards, VJK
Hi! The identity of the second General has been bugging me all this time, because his face was so familiar. Finally today I cracked it - Siegfried Haenicke. Best regards, VJK
I've searched through my records, but unfortunately can't find my notes regarding the source for the picture, only that I downloaded it on 29 September, 2004. Sorry that I can't be of more help. Best regards, VJK
Hi Glenn, Sorry for the delay in replying, but I'm spending most of the summer in Georgia (Caucasus, not USA) and have only occasional access to the net. Many thanks for your info, I hope someone will be able to put a name to our mystery man. Best regards, Valdis
Hi! This picture is currently advertised on ebay.de. Clearly he is not wearing K.u.k. general's insignia - is he a post-war Austrian general, or not Austrian but German? Can anyone please put a name to him. http://cgi.ebay.de/GROSSES-PHOTO-KUK-GENER...1QQcmdZViewItem Many thanks in advance, VJK
