A rather high-ranking one, who I could not find in the MWB. Oberst aD Ludwig Haushalter

He seems to have been pensioned in 1907/08 and from then on Landwehr Bezirk I Berlin. Until then Major in IR 42.

This might be another new White Falcon: Lt dR Walter Laatsch

Königsberger Hartungsche Zeitung, 31.7.1918

[webr55]

Here is an interesting case, we don't have him so far. Got the data from myheritage:

Johannes Goblau, 1893-1966

Ah wait, typical Fraktur mistake: the name is Goßlau. So still, a new first name and dates. And he was from IR 155

Hi

I have found two different date of award of the HOH3X to Friedrich von Boetticher (Saxon officer).

In Geile's book the date is 18 September 1917

on intenet, Geocities his HOH3X was on 3 May 1918.

 

Which one is the good one. Thanks for your help

@WebR, thanks a lot!!!

@Christophe,

Boetticher got the HOH3X 03.05.1918, published in the Staatsanzeiger 18.06.1918, NOT published in the Militärwochenblatt.

The 18.09.17 HOH3X in the Militärwochenblatt is the Prussian HANS von Boetticher

 

Best,

Daniel

Thanks for clearing that up! Who was Hans? An officier? Maybe brother of Friedrich? Thank you!
