My first Tamara

[Bob]

Another document for a Tamara - 13/12/1918

 

This one from Josef Schmid from the 15th Jager Regiment

 

The handwriting in the document is not easy to decypher - it looks like he was also awarded an iron cross 2nd class and a wound badge

I don't see an Urkunde, just Eintraege.

You are correct, it's not a Tamara specific document. It does include refence to the person having been awarded a Tamara (the purple stamp).

hello,

in this discussion, also about the Tamara Order, I've posted my own documented group:

Hi Bob,

yes it says IC2 and wound badge in black.

Are there any entries past page 11? I'm curious if he served in Freikorps Würzburg which was formed from Bavarian Reserve Jäger Regiment 15 when it returned to Germany from Georgia in 1919.

There are no more entries past page 11 unfortunately. I posted all the pages with written entries on them. They're not easy to read which is unfortunate as there's quite a bit of personal / military career detail there.

I read the entries and he left the service on April 7 1919 two days before the regiment formed Freikorps Würzburg and left for Munich to fight the communists. He had been wounded. So, maybe he wasn't up to it or had had enough. He was marked with good conduct and he received his 50 Marks discharge pay.

Another Tamara, a bit smaller in size than usual (gut feeling) and dark enamel.

Dear forumites,

 

herewith I’m announcing that today I just joined the club of the Tamara Order’s owner… an interesting group of a Bavarian NCO. The Tamara Order is made of Silber (marked on the pin) . Maker is Zimmermann in Pforzheim… a real beauty and very heavy too! 😊

😍

After a good twenty or so years of very casually searching, I finally tracked down a Tamara ribbon bar.  My first ribbon bar with a tailor's label as well.  Interesting that it's not a Bavarian tailor.

Neat ribbon bar! Thanks!
