    1. Hello, I dont know really if this is a good or even right place for this but I would like to get a translation of a section of these two films. I am doing research on Generalmajor Otto Korfes and he is mentioned in both of these films. I would only need the translation of the specified timeframes mentioning him which ill show

      There is information on Art.Rgt 64 at the Lexikon website whose link has been provided on some of the other forums where you have posted this request. I would say that it would be difficult to find any in depth details but you could always trawl through the archives and see if there is any mention of them in the War Diaries of the units it served under.

       

      Major Walter Kuhn commanded II/Art.Rgt 64 until 31st Oct 1935. It is a common name so tracking any details down for the actual soldier without any further details might prove very difficult.

      What archives would I need to look through?

      Thanks

      Hi,

      it would be easier if you´d shown the whole jacket, as from the label it is not clear if he belonged to Fuß-Artillerie or Feld-Artillerie. As there seemingly was no Fuß-Artillerie Regiment of that number he must have served with the Saxon FAR 64.

      There is a regimental history of this unit, but as he was no officer chances are slim he is mentioned in it.

      Wagner, Erich: "Das 5. Kgl. Sächs. Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr. 64". Dresden 1922, 142 Seiten (Band 4 des sächs. Anteils der Erinnerungsblätter).

      Probably the reason why he was called Kühn II is that Kühn I, given name Arno of same regiment, served in the 2nd Batterie. He was killed in action 1916.

      Kühn II seems to have survived the war unharmed.
