Heinrich Grimm (1804-1884)

[David M]

Would anyone have details on the career or a picture of Heinrich Grimm? He received the CHGL3 in 1838, but as he lived through 1884, he might be in one of 'the more recent' (if available) books on prussian militairy doctor

Hope you can help me out

David,

Professor Heinrich Gottfried Grimm was the first medical officer of the Prussian Army to be granted the rank of a Generallieutenant on 31 December 1873.

Again Great info Glenn, what was the source you used? I would like to mention that at Heinrich Grimm's entry in my publication!

Thanks again

David,

the image is from the "Stammliste der Kaiser Wilhelms Akademie f?r das milit?r?rtzliche Bildungswesen". Grimm's promotion to the rank of Generallieutenant was published in early 1874 in the Milit?r-Wochenblatt.

Would you know any possible source for a picture of the good doctor?

Would you know any possible source for a picture of the good doctor?

Here you are:

Schickert 1895, "Die Milit?r?rztlichen Bildungsanstalten von ihrer Gr?ndung bis zur Gegenwart" Verlag Mittler&Sohn; The original is hard to find (I have one ), but there is a reprint of 1986 you can get easy e.g. on Abebooks.de.

Greetings, Komtur.
