Mattyboy Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 The Lt dR Bodo Schmidt on page 36 of this thread is probably the man listed in the MWB dated 20.10.1917. His name appears in the Saale Zeitung on this very date. He also appears on the 06.11.1917 publication, along with a new first name - Lt dR Franz Weise (MWB 03.11.1917). 2
Mattyboy Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Hi All, Not sure if this man had the Princely or HOH3x (or both?) - Lt dR Oskar Noth from 2 GRzF. Both articles are from the Hallische Nachrichten. One is dated 27.07.1918 and the other is 24.09.1918. 1

Your Gerhard is Heinrich Ludwig Adolf Gerhard (born 6. August 1881 in Harburg), his father was Generalleutnant z. D. Friedrich Otto Ferdinand Freiherr von Ledebur (1848--1916). Do you happen to know in which regiment he served during the war? Since 18 August 1899 I have him as Sekondeleutnant in the Westfälisches Jäger-Bataillon Nr. 7. But with the Rangliste 1902 he had moved to the reserves. Edited January 20, 2022 by Deutschritter
