    1. Trying to find the first name of Hptm dR Skrodzki from RIR 38. He cannot be the Hptm dL (1914) from GGR 5, that was Friedrich/Fritz, born 1864 in Limburg, in captivity from 1917 to 1919.

       

      He can only be the Lt dR in the 1914 RL, who was originally in GrenR 11 (with location Neutomischel): Erich Skrodzki (1883-1955)

      His death certificate lists him as "Direktor des Rechnungshofes des Deutschen Reiches a.D.". 

       

       

       

    2. Curt Freiherr von Salmuth died in 1981 (other awards here as well):

      A new one? Prof. Dr. Heinrich Quiring (1885-1964) is listed in the Deutsche Biographie with a Hohenzollern:

      The entry does not explicitly say "with swords", but Deutsche Biographie might have been sloppy. He is in the Verlustlisten as Lt dR from FAR 54, I would think it must have an X award.
