Thanks for all the help. The robbon bar does not belong to the uniform. It was used to hide a small defect on the uniform.

He had a good career. In the USA ARMY only a small percentage make it to General. This is the chronology of his career

He was born in 3-6-1891

Joined the Army in 1911

18-12-1911 Uffz

22-3- 1911

22-3-1912 Fahnrich

10-11-1912 LT

22-3-1916 ObLT

12-3-1930 Hptm

1-4-1933 Major

Hi paul

I meant Keitel?

thanks

Juan

Documment signed by Leitel?

Well

I guess he was loyal to his wife. He stayed in the Heer so he was lucky was not dismissed. I scaned a 6 page letter bty him to the Heer personnel office and a reply. Thanks to Nexus german knowledge we may know more. I guess he may had been lucky that he was not promoted as he may had endured a lot of hardship and probably longer captivity.

These document was signed just befor the war started

Thanks

I thought that the one with the drinking problem was the Oberst. I guess that his wife's problem may had ruined his promotion to Generasl.

thanks

Hi

I recently receive the piped tunic on Heer Oberst Julius Buchert. He made it to Oberst in 1938 and spent most of the war in the Fuhrer Reserve. I received copies of his military records. I would like to know if the records may shde light on why he did not make it to General

Juan

I understand that the Archives located at the NARA in Wasington DC does not have Luftwaffe personnel. My question is were can I get access to those records?. I would gladly pay for the service.

thanks
