Arnold von Bolko is not in our list, but is it a Royal HOH? SPZ, 27.2.1923
-
Not sure: is that Karl Maaß? In any case, he was killed as Polizei-Hauptmann in 1921: 8.4.1921
-
Ryll died in 1919: 6.9.1919 Baumert is Fritz, died in 1920: 19.11.1920

Schlesische Privilegierte Zeitung is a good source, Matty! 8.12.1918, Ulrich Kaufmann should be a new first name: 20.2.1919, RM dR v. Rohr was KIA in 1918:

Looks very good!

Now this is a very peculiar evidence from 1945: a "W. Vater" from the Paderborn area lost a case with his HHOX medal bar at the station and was looking for it. So if he is the (former Lt dR) Vater in our list, we now know at least his first initial. Westfälisches Volksblatt, 4.1.1945

Röseler is Wilhelm, from Vinsebeck. Westfälisches Volksblatt, 9.10.1918

Lt dR Kuhrt is H. Kuhrt, Lehrer in Wiesdorf. Opladener Zeitung, 15.5.1918
-
Lt dL Lakenberg was a teacher in Gladbeck, but I don't have his first name. Buersche Zeitung, 14.11.17 It looks like the Emil Flender in our list might be rather Emil Fleuder, from Hervest-Dorsten. Buersche Zeitung, 15.5.18

Hüls is Max: Amtszeitung Lütgendortmund. 18.6.1918

Could this be a Cartier Tank?

Hello everyone, I haven't posted in this section before, if this is the wrong place please let me know. My question: is it possible to identify the brand of Field Marshal Manstein's watch in the picture below? He is meeting with Turkish generals in 1943. Regards Chris

Very interesting! The ribbon bar in the second/third photo is the one shown here by Heiko as #2. It is the earliest of the three.

I guess this has been discussed before, but still: Did Göring really wear two Luftwaffe long service crosses instead of two medals? Is there any photo that shows him wearing this medal bar? It would belong in our "Mistakes in Wear" thread. (Certainly, crosses look much fancier.)
