* EK 2

* EK 1

* Sachsen-Weimar : White Falcon 2 nd. X

The following name scome into vieuw (source: Neil W.O.Connor)

* Appel (von) - Olt.

* B?low (Freiherr von), Hilmer - Hptm.

* Crienitz - Hptm.

* Edler, Alfred - Olt. z. See

* Ihn, Max - Olt.

* Jacobs, Josef - Lt.

* Mardersteig, Georg - Hptm.

* Neumann - Hptm.

* Peters, Emil - Olt.

* Pfeiffer, Leo - Hptm.

* Plagemann - Lt.

* Wencher, Konrad - Lt.

* Werder (von), Claus - Hptm.

* Wolff, Joachim - Lt.

* Wolff, Jakob - Lt.

Thanks in advance, the person who is searched did survive WWI - so any casualty of WWI does not fit in.

Cordial greetings + thanks for the help

Hello,

I can already exclude 4 officers from the list:

* Jacobs, Josef - Lt.

=> has won the 'Pour Le Merite', so not the person i am seraching.

* Wolff, Joachim - Lt.

=> was KIA on 16.05.1918

* Wolff, Jakob - Lt.

He had 4 claims but was wounded during 1917 while acting with Jasta 17 + never returned again towards a frontline unit. He died 04.12.1926. (Therefore he could not have been a DLV member - as the DLV was first grounded 1933)

* B?low (Freiherr von), Hilmer - Hptm.

=> He did get the HOHX + was later a General / no long service awards etc .... , so no match on this one.

So a few more to check, thanks for helping out

Cordial greetings,
