could someone give me the names of the 3 nco`s listed by Nimmergut please...........

and the shoulder board.... what kind of uniform is he wearing?

the medal bar...

Can anyone guess what the last medal on this bar is? And any idea what is that on his shoulderboards? photo is made in Berlin sometimes after 1906 I think....

tuuuuuuuuut...........tuuuuuuuuuuuuut...........tuuuuuuuuuuuuuut............. Kein Anschluss unter dieser Nummer........... Thank you very much for his telephone number and the photos of his wife you sent me via email No , seriously.......... as always a great and really fast job - you really can wear your new honour member colour with proud (is it "Flieder" ?)

Our man is wearing the date clasp "23.1.1916" on the ribbon for the Tapferkeitsmedaille Hessen-Darmstadt !!! OEK N°884/1 Really not often seen... I know only two medal bars , one ribbon bar and two photos with it.... The card has been sent as field post with the stamp of Infanterie Regiment "Prinz Carl" (4.Grossherzoglich Hessisches) Nr.118 and everything fits... :jumping:

...and this is what we are talking about...

... this is OUR man....

Just want to show you one of the most rare ww1 awards.... not shiny and golden , no neck order and no breast cross.... just a small little thing... :whistle:

and the reverse...

Nice picture of a german ww1 U-boat officer with EK2 , EK1 and the U-boat badge - but the main thing is that there is a name on the reverse but I can`t find anything about this man on the net... I read " Meyer zu Beutrup " but I have tried some variations of the name but - nothing.... maybe someone has this or a similar name in his archive and can give me the correct name and some info of this man. thanks for all help Heiko

....always a bit like standup-comedy :speechless1:

didn`t we say in another thread that it is some kind of a Stahlhelm Bundesführer uniform...?

@ Wild Card: I have been to Disneyland Paris last year... i heard this song the next three weeks in my dreams.... @ all : .....and that is the magic of world wide web : two guys from different regions of germany has photos of one officer not knowing of each other - and to make it even better - one of them has it from his own old family photo album - the name to the photo is given from one guy from another place in the world working with sources and gnomes all over the world - that`s real world wide web , that`s global power....that`s really cool :beer:

.............. that , Mr.YesIknowIoweyoumorebeersthanyouevercandrinkinhundredyears , is the next chapter.... :beer:

Unbelievable small world , really..... So it is really a bit like christmas - for me and for Markus Gescheeeeeeeeeeeeeenke !!! Thank you Rick and... ohhhhhh yes , they do!!!

and the shoulderboards...

...the bar

....his wife :P

Hello community..... today I want to show you a very interesting combination of Hohenzollern and SEHO on one bar - the good news is that I have TWO photos of this man ..... the not so good news is that the only additional info on the second photo is his wife... Photographer either from Kassel or from Elberfeld , I am not shure what uniform that is because there is something on his shoulderboards what screams "some kind of official" or a Beamter of some sort...but the uniform looks like some kind of Garde , Verkehrstruppen , Pioniere...... but maybe I am completely wrong I simply don`t know where to search for him.... of course there is no date on the photos - would be too simple.... only after 1897 for shure So , as always - enjoy the pics and every help is warmly welcome thank you Heiko

.....Paul , it is written on the medal "Für Rettung aus Lebensgefahr" !!! That should be OEK N°3009 and is in silver a very very rare piece and in gold , I think , never seen.... :whistle:

....next one - note that he is wearing the enameled version of the eagle !!!

....what makes sense for a long serving helpful fireman

....and one in wear :whistle:

Yup - as always !!! so Turkey was a good shot , only the medal was wrong... NO - think about his health !!! all what he is doing here cannot be solved with beers.... that would be the worlds biggest Maßkrug ever !!! thank you so much Heiko
