    Hello!

    I am looking for some information about Kapitan zur See and Pour-le-Merite winner Hans Adam (1883 - 1948). Does anyone have a complete list of his awards and decorations? Any info about his assignments and promotions will be very useful.

    He was born in Wesel / Rhein. Where he was died?

    Perhaps somebody has this picture of him more large (~300 x 80)? Sourses: www.u-boot-net.de.

    Thanks

    Igor

    ... thanks Douglas - you are right! Sorry - I forgot something important! ;-o

    The single letters behind:

    ® = (Rangliste) first reference in a RL. (in this case the Ranklist was printed on the 14. February 1918 (for the EK1))

    (S) = (Stiftungsdatum) award was founded. (in this case the U-Bootkriegsabzeichen was founded on the 2. January 1918)

    Adam, Hans - *05.03.1883 (Wesel / Rhein) - ?23.06.1948.

    Kronenorden 4. Kl., Oberleutnant zur See, 03.10.1912, Torpedoinspektion - zur Verf?gung.

    Eisernes Kreuz 1914 II. Kl., Kapit?nleutnant, 01.08.1916, Marinespezialkommando Pola - F?hrer. ®

    Pour le M?rite, Kapit?nleutnant, 06.11.1917, U 82 - Kommandant.

    Ubootkriegsabzeichen 1918, Kapit?nleutnant, 02.01.1918, U 82 - Kommandant. (S)

    Eisernes Kreuz 1914 I. Kl., Kapit?nleutnant, 14.02.1918, U 82 - Kommandant. ®

    So it is not exactly know when he get the EK1 - but definitely before the PLM! ;-)

    Thanx and best regards,

    Jens
