    I have a nice studio photo coming in about two weeks that shows a Landsturm doctor (Landsturmpflichtiger Arzt in Stabsarztstelle) wearing a white falcon with swords. It appears to be the only medal he is wearing. I do not know if there is more information on the back of the photo, though it is dated October of 1918. Is this enough information for a possible ID? I can't imagine that there would be that many Landsturm doctors awarded the white falcon with swords.

    That would be the ONE class (SWF3bX) which is MISSING its Roll after 1915 for natives. Much more intact for "foreigners," but simply a void in what has been found.

    There isn't a single contract surgeon on the rolls I've done.

    Rick,

    Thanks for the info. Hopefully, the photo will have more information on the back. Just the fact that it has the date is encouraging. Here is the photo from the internet offering. It was too small to make out the medal, but the collar insignia was very clear. I will scan and post it along with any additional information when it arrives.
