    1. last bid was ?36????????????lol Estate of a German XX Oberschaf?hrer of the infamous "LAH"

      Name unknown, maybe someone can help.

      I got the entire bundle on a local flea market a couple of years ago. The guy garanteed that the foto and the chest thing are original and so do I. It looks very old although i am no professionel.

      For more pictures, don t hesitate to contact me.

    2. Doug,

      You have a nice little group. I find it interesting that a man from land-locked Bavaria spent the entire war with a navy unit in the Wilhelmshaven area. I spent a year at the university in W?rzburg, which is a beautiful city. By a coincidence, I recently received a complete WW1 document group of awards, award documents, Milit?rpass and Soldbuch to a Bavarian who served with naval artillery units in the north of Germany, the Somme and Flanders

      Simon,

      gottgl. is an abbreviation for gottgl?ubig, which he meas that he believed in God, but didn't commit himself to a particular religious demonination.

      David

      you beat me to it davidReligion Usually abbreviated. ev. (Evangelical-Lutheran), r. kath or kath. (Roman Catholic, ggl. (Gottglaubig-beliver in God), or % for atheist. Gef. Schnakenberg was a Lutheran.

    3. found it.

      OKL Chef TLR is Oberkommando der Luftwaffe, Chef der Technischen Luftr?stung.

      These fellas were the people involved in the development of new weapons and equipment. As he was in the Flak department that could mean some form of involvment in things like the V-1 and V-2 but also other equipment being developed for the flak arm.

      Great potential for further research there Doug, i know at least some TLR archives exist at the NARA archives in the US.

      Are there no decorations recorded in his SB? Not even a lowly KVK?

      no not that i can see ???could this be a second issue???
