      First name: Lt dR Kurt Schaller from IR 85, KIA 1918

    2. The Wilhelmshavener Tageblatt (20.10.1918) reprinted these HHOX recipients, obviously based on the Staatsanzeiger entry from 17.10. I checked all the names, we have them all - except for one:

       

      Hptm dL aD von Zwingler

       

      --->    CORRECTION: "Zwingler" seems to be a typo. This is probably Hptm dL aD Rudolf von ZINGLER (in the list already).

    3. Another new first name: The Lt dL Thomas from IR 450 who is in our list is Max Thomas:

       

      Regiment is not named in the death notice, but Maj Kaulbach was commander of IR 450. 

       

      Also interesting: again another "only submitted" one according to the death notice, but we know he got the award through other sources. We should therefore list all submitted ones (at least in a separate category), even if we have no proof they got the award.

       

      From Schlawer Zeitung, 1.11.1918

    4. Here is a Lt dR R. Nowack, not sure if this is the same one as the Lt dR Carl Nowack who is in the list.

       

      From Schlesische Zeitung, 27.9.1918

      This is interesting: Here is a submitted one who we know definitely received it (he is in the list):

       

      Lt dR Kurt Dentler from IR 63

       

      From Schlesische Zeitung, 28.9.1918
