Any idea who this guy is??? photo is made in St.Petersburg ca. 1875
-
yes....any kind of patriotic medal or Kriegerverein could have originally been there....you will never know which one , but if you have one put it there and you have a nice little bar
-
you can sometimes see photos of soldiers of the Stabswache with the crown order medal.....seems that they got a bunch of it one more question.... when did he serve at the Große Hauptquartier...and where ? Do you know it?
-
Maybe but then he should have the colonial medal too.....or.....it is only the colonial medal and no dswa....but with these many clasps , dont know....would make it even better
-
I think it is the DSWA medal with 5 or 6 clasps... if he got not both MEZ for DSWA N°1 would be the GMVK for ww1 , normally worn in the buttonhole but here mounted on the bar - not 100% shure about that....
-
Todays lucky find.... nice picture of a machine gun unit......BUT......even nicer with this rare bling bling
-
Great job Dave !!! Here is Dr. Leopold Mohr and here Paul Berlin , picture made 1914 in Belgien
-
this is the name of the man with the austrian order.... not shure what it is....maybe Meyer ? Compare it with your 5 names....
-
Cool Dave thanks a lot.... now that helps really !!! Here we have some faces to the names.... Beyer is left on the horse , Wendenburg is the Hussar on the horse and Berlin right from him on the horse too Additional question....is there a complete list of this regiments officers out there?
-
Dave....any information about MVK 1.class to officers from this regiment??? any names???
-
seems to be a Filz-Tschako.... nice pic
-
Thanks Chris that`s what I hoped .... a Mecklenburg connection
-
Hello, I need some information about Infanterie Regiment 432 , can`t find anything....where was it set up , which units were used to fill it up , which "home state" did it belong to?????? Every help is welcome thank you Heiko
-
It seems to be a combination of photo and painting....so normally the badge on his arm looks a bit different but it should be the arm badge of the Freikorps Epp. Then he wears the wound badge , two ribbons on the breast pocket in typical style of the "freikorps-time" and the Edelweiß for some service during ww1 with the Alpenkorps I would think....
-
.....not in a Cabrio
-
But there are officers in IR119 with only a Bavarian MVO on the breast....for example Freiherr von Lützow in 1899....but now we come to total guessing
-
I would guess it is him , too. He was working as a Magazin-Rendant and Proviant-Meister and changed between the Armee-Korps.... one year he was assigned to the IV. , one year to the X. ..... why not visiting Berlin sometime
-
Kraftfahrer belonged originally to the Verkehrstruppen , as well as the Telegraph boys and the Flyers - and thats why they all wear Tschakos - sometimes - nice pic
-
one more...
-
yes some really strange combos out there....
-
Member of some kind of shooting club with a mix of club "orders" and official awards....typical for that time

yes you can often find the word "mattweiß" in award documents....but....not so often you find the dates and places of the wounds on the docs , that`s always very interesting
