    This might be the Lt dR Tantz who we have in the list already: 

    Lt dR Tanz from IR 47, KIA in 1918.

     

    Immediately below is the death notice for Maj (Kurt) Plewig (already in the list).

     

    From Posener Tageblatt, 31.10.1918

    Rittmeister von Hantelmann-Baborowko. Not sure if this is the Georg we already have in the list, might be.

    It looks like the Lt dR Thom in our list is a flyer: Lt Thom from Freystadt in West Prussia.

    Hi,

     

    If it is Karl Thom, this is not the knight cross he received but the MEMBER cross with X on August 1918. Karl Thom was born in Freystadt in 1893

    Hi

     

    Some sources like German loss lists and Kriegsräbefürsorge states that Karl Thom was born 18.05.1893 in Neudeck, Rosenberg. However it is not far away from Freystadt.

    I have not checked his BAMA file. He ended up as Oberstlt at the time of his death.

     

    btw, while my time in BAMA Freiburg I have seen more then 10 award (or abschriften)  documents for Hohx3, but I have not made copies of these.
