Deruelle Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Hi everybody, Please find 2 documents of this officer who served as a Leutnant in KB 8IR and during the war he served in KB 9IR and in after was transfered in aviation. Have a look. The first one is the Prince Luitpold document.Christophe
Deruelle Posted June 25, 2005 Author Posted June 25, 2005 1913 Rangliste show Leutnant Schwemmer with this medal
Deruelle Posted June 25, 2005 Author Posted June 25, 2005 This officer received pre and during the war the following medals: EK2BMVO4bXPLHe probably received the EK1, and like he was transfered in Flieger Abetilung and like he was not recorded as a fighter pilot, I think he received the Beobachterabz. If someone has got more info I will be happy. Thanks for your help.Christophe
Paul C Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 You have a 1918 Bayern Rangliste? I did not know that it existed. Would you post a scan of the title page? Does the RL show wartime awards?
Glenn J Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Paul,the Rangliste der Offiziere der k?niglich Bayerischen Armee 1918 is not rare and fairly easy to pick up. It does however only list Bavarian awards. It is more akin to a Dienstaltersliste or seniority list as opposed to the pre war editions of the Bavarian Military Handbook. A 1917 edition was also published.RegardsGlenn
Deruelle Posted June 25, 2005 Author Posted June 25, 2005 Sorry Paul, I have made copy 8 years ago and the original book haven't got the title page. flame This book with Milit?r Handbuch from 1913 give me more complete records. I complete with Ehrenranglisten from 1926. Glenn, if you have got more info about this Bavarian officer, thanks for your help.RegardsChristophe
Deruelle Posted June 25, 2005 Author Posted June 25, 2005 I have shared with you one of my bavarian ribbon bar. This one is more particulary because it belonged to one officer of KB IR Nr. 8 (the Chief was the Grossherzog from Bade).The ribbon bar :BMVO4bXEK2BZ3bXPLChristophe
Glenn J Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Paul,here is the title page. Christophe,I will have a look!RegardsGlenn
Guest Rick Research Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Paul: You can visit my 1918 Bavarian next time you are here. Christophe: I don't find NYTHING else on Schwemmer--ask the guys in the "People" forum at the Aerodrome websitehttp://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/index.php :beer-smiley:
