Leutwein Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Hello Chris,unfortunately I couldn?t find any wounded Person with the name Heinrich Teske.Perhaps he was too old for doing his service in the WW1! Perhaps he was a settler or an old veteran (Feldwebel) during the Herero-War and finally to old for the WW1.All the bestLeutwein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Or in a "reserved" civilian occupation that was vital to the war effort, as was THIS ex noncommissioned officer who made good:[attachmentid=56419]Medal bar: Los 487 Sammlung Siebentritt October 2002 Kube auctions. Ribbon bar: obtained in Hamburg, in my collection since 5 November 1997. (I hope the person who split these apart over 10 measly Deutschmarks-- retail!!! --- is happy. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Boonzaier Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 By coincidence I bought a new document to complete this set, he turned up in one of the Armierungs labour battalions in WW1, got a hanseatenkreuz.Seems to have been sent back from GSWA as either sick or wounded.I did a full write up of the group here....http://www.kaiserscross.com/40117/52401.htmlmust still add the WW1 doc...

Bernd D Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 In the "Deutsches Kolonialblatt" from 1905 I found the entry" Mit Heimaturlaub infolge Verwundung oder Erkrankung sind am 24. Juli 1905 in Hamburg eingetroffen ...Unteroffizier Teske.(With home leave due to wound or illness arrived in Hamburg .....)It could be the same Teske, Heinrich who received the MEZ2 in 1905.Bernd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
