Marcin L Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Hello.Is there any way to identify this one ? Kind regards!Marcin.
saschaw Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 For me no possibility to identify the person, but only its awads:On the neck:- Preu?en, Roter Adler-Orden II. Klasse;- Preu?en, Kronenorden II. Klasse;And on the bar:- Bayern, Milit?r-Verdienstorden, Ritterkreuz I. Klasse;- Bayern, Verdienstorden vom Heiligen Michael, Ritterkreuz I. Klasse;- Preu?en, Kriegsdenkm?nze 1870/71 am Band f?r K?mpfer (no way to tell if steel or bronce, I'd guess steel);- Bayern, Denkzeichen f?r das Jahr 1849;- Bayern, Dienstauszeichnungskreuz II. Klasse f?r 24 Jahre.A nice early group, picture is taken post 1871 but pre1897, may be 1870s or 1880s. Good look with identifying.
derGeneral Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 The Crown Order might be a 3rd class, he wears it with a short ribbon in the buttonhole. A very nice picutre, would be perfekt for my collection
Marcin L Posted March 16, 2007 Author Posted March 16, 2007 As always - thank you all for your help What was the rank of this person? Is it infanterie?derGeneral - it was on ebay.de few days ago
derGeneral Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 Yes, he is Infanterie. The rank have to been Oberst or something like this (Im not pretty sure). If you want to swap oder sell let me know
saschaw Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 I have no idea WHAT he is, but the uniform does actually not look like one I would expect for German Military. He might be anything, but I don't think it's Bavarian infanterie. I'm not even sure if this is a military uniform, and I don't think someone wears a Red Eagle order 2nd class with a Crown order 3rd class together?! The other way round is common, but this is in my humble opinion more than just strange.
