    1. Hi, yes - an Oberleutnant Martin Redlich (7. Komp., RIR263) is listed in the Verlustliste. Best regards, Jens
    2. Hi Chip, bay. Kriegsrangliste Nr.1024: 12. März 1905: bay. J. M., 14.03.1915: M. V. 4b m. Schw., 16.09.1914: P.E.K.2, 19.05.1918: V. A. schw. Best regards, Jens
    3. Hi Marcin, you are sure!? The RIR82 was (with the 22. Res.-Div.) only on the Westfront - or!? Best regards, Jens
    4. Hi Chris, I read: "Herr Ob. Lt. Schimke - 3/2 Garde - Osten, den 20.2.17 - gehört mit zu unseren Gruppen." Maybe a closeup from the shoulderboard is helpful!? Best regards, Jens
    5. Hi, the auction was 2nd of march in germany - he payed around ~80 Euro for this badge, EK1* and VWA. I had the badge in my hands and I don't bid for this set! Best regards, Jens * EK1 back was damaged (broken needle, etc.)
    6. Hi Marcin, I read "6.8.14 b. Ers. Btl. Ldw. J. R. 18 / 4. Kp." = 6.8.14 beim Ersatz-Bataillon Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr.18 / 4. Kompanie (later 7. and 5. Kompanie). "10.1217 b. Wi. Komp. 270" = Wirtschafts-Kompanie 270 (later Wirtschafts-Kompanie 268). Last entry (and stamp) is from the Danziger-Infanterie-Regiment Nr.128. Best regards, Jens
    7. Chip, one question is 1. Garde-Maschinen-Gewehr-Abteilung maybe also possible!???? Thanks and best regards, Jens
    8. Hi Ulsterman, normaly the officer received a silver-frame (Erinnerunszeichen) not the Red-Eagle-Order. Best regards, Jens
    9. Hi, it's the "Kaiserabzeichen" (or "Kaiserpreis"), it's a unit award for a company or a battery. With the Kings-crown there are artillery-units from Bayern, Württemberg or Sachsen possible: Kaiserpreis (Schiesswettbewerb von 1895 bis 1913) – GenWiki The "Kaiserschießpreis" is a special kind of lanyard (Kaiserschnur or Chefschnur - here Nr. 10 or 11). Best regards, Jens
    10. Tach, die genauen Adressen findest Du z. B. im Berlin-Adressbuch (für 1914: siehe folgenden Link). Historische Stadtpläne: z. B. hier oder hier oder hier. Zu historischen Berlin Fotos musst Du Dich evtl. mal durch die staatlichen Bildarchive wühlen!? Berlin-Site oder Bundesarchiv Gruß Jens
    11. ... yes - I see the "h" in Heinrich - in my opinion not correct! I never seen this "artistic loopy" before and never heard about! Sorry - I have some doubts about the handwriting-style on the documents. Maybe you can show some higher resolution scans!? I hope I'm wrong! Best regards, Jens p.s.: and on this document the name and unit (is in my opinion) printed (see the "e": four-times the same letter).
    12. Hi Chris, what is one the iron-cross 2. class writen: "Schharfschhützen ..." !?!? (must be: Scharfschützen). Can you please scan all three signatures (1:1) from the Leutnant M. Wagner signed documents!? Best regards, Jens p.s.: you checked the regimental-history!? Heinrich v. Both: "Geschichte des 6ten Garde-Infanterie-Regiments", Aus Deutschlands großer Zeit Bd. 41, Zeulenroda 1931, Sporn.
    13. ... in the same Verlustliste (PR. 71) is a "Hptm. Erich Schultze - Glentorf, Braunschweig - gefallen" (3. Komp., Inf.-Rgt. Nr.97). ... one page before: "Hptm. Fritz Graumann - Freiburg i. B. - leicht verwundet" (1. Komp., Inf.-Rgt. Nr.97). Best regards, Jens
    14. ... a Hauptmann Fritz Graumann is threetimes listed in the Verlustliste: Suche in den Verlustlisten des 1. Weltkriegs ... two regiments from the XXI. Armeekorps: 1. Oberrheinische Inf.-Rgt. Nr.97 and the Landwehr-Inf.-Rgt. Nr.60 But you are sure with: "Schulzte" !??? Maybe: Schulze or Schultze or Schultz .... ??? Best regards, Jens
    15. Hi, I think: "II" or the "III" behind a name: there was more than one with the same familyname in the same unit!? (like: (Hans) Meyer I, (Wilhelm) Meyer II, etc. ...). And the "A.1" maybe mean: "Anlage Nummer 1" (attachment number 1) !??? Best regards, Jens
    16. Hi Chris, take a look here: Prussian Cap-Eagle - Germany: Imperial Uniforms, Headwear, Insignia & Personal Equipment - Gentleman's Military Interest Club Best regards, Jens
