Thats highly interesting!!!! years ago I've met his grandson. Old Army LtCol Arnold Teubner survived WW2 and lived at least until the 60ies/70ies. His son Achim joined the Navy and became Commander. KIA in 1945, had a great part in sinking the "HMS Glorious" in WW2. His grandson Joachim joined the German Air Force and became a LtCol too. Retired around 2002. 2nd pic, the nice chap on the left side: https://www.noz.de/lokales/lingen/artikel/1581328/luftwaffenmusikkorps-muenster-in-der-klosterkirche-thuine So 3 Generations, in 3 different branches, all reached the same rank :-) Have to look, if I still have some pics somewhere. Best, Daniel

Jerusalem - yes, only full size.

The ribbon is for the red eagle 4 with swords. Only the ribbons of the EK, another prussian war decoration or the lifesaving medal could be worn on the Überrock. Best, Daniel

RAOGKEX, BMV1X, BremH, LüH, SA1gStX, WF1X Viele Grüße Daniel

Bielitz had a Princely Hohenzollern 3rd class with Crown and swords. Best, Daniel

Good stuff, als always!!! Thanks a lot! To get through all the stuff from Leutwein will take me some weeks! :-) Best, Daniel

nice! the 1st guy seems to be Georg Hartung from FußAR 7 for the 2nd guy I would bet on Colonel Wilhelm Alberti, ex GR 5, then EIR 29 Best, Daniel

Many ?

GREAT!!!!! Thanks to all!!! So, Hensler is Willy with a BZ3bX as well. Best, Daniel

Thanks for the Schmidt! Noiw it is just the little problem to figure out, which HOH3X is his :-) Best, Daniel

Kurt Freiherr von Forstner, 1882-1962

Hmpf. That might be the MWB published Lt d.R. Heck on the 31.10.1918, Staatsanzeiger had him 03.10.1918. As in that times the delay was between 6 weeks and 3 months, it might fit...if Die Presse got the info very soon after the award. Best, Daniel

nice early bar mid WW1 I assume. Congrats!! Best, Daneil

this might be indeed a new one. General Kurt Lange got his HOH3X as Lt in IR 149 05.07.18 the Oberleutnant Lange, published 17.08.18 is IMO Gerhart Lange, awarded the HOH3X 30.06.18 as OLt in IR 130. This Kurt might be one of the Lt d.R., who might have gotten freshly promoted. Maybe Dave can put some light on that guys. Best, Daniel

Ahhh.. So that HOH3X for Kaspar is not the new one, but for Otto Gerlach. so the Lehrer Otto Gerlach, 1862-1940, Major d.R.a.D. und Oberschulrat is an unpiblished late 1918 award which is mentioned in his Lehrer File... Otherwise I would wonder why a mid-1917 award would not be in the gazettes... Best, Daniel

Great additions! Thanks a lot! I wonder a bit about Jensen. Mid 1918 and not mentioned in the MWB... it happened. Best, Daniel

Oh yes. No swords decoration on war ribbon were awarded in low numbers. Usually to guys in the rear like administration branch. Best, Daniel

Will check. Awards - not more than a EK1 Best, Daniel

Ah. Did you buy his ribbon bar? ? Best, Daniel

Yes. Sweden did even award Orders to Germans in WW1 by the hundreds. Best, Daniel

Thanks guys, V. Schroeder is indeed new. Best, Daniel

Unlike in WW2, In WW1 it was never forbidden to wear enemies decorations. Most people did not wear it anymore but some did. Only thing to remove were the Initials of enemies regents from the shoulder boards of the Chef-regiments. Best, Daniel

thanks!!!! Krueger is a very clear hit! Petersen is originally from Baden. 2 LtdR Petersen quite close together with the HOH...so one is clear now :-) Best, Daniel

Hello friends, Will check these 2 guys tomorrow. I am sure about Franz Külp as I had him already with Fliegerabt. 35 in my list. Best; Daniel
