Guest Rick Research Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Yikes! The world's oldest Austrian Hauptmann! Same pose (if that was his "GOOD side" ) but different shoulder boards and ribbon bars...hatless/no number on boards:Austrian generic frontline bravery/war merit awards ribbon XdittoHindenburg Cross X? Karl Troop Cross (usually worn ahead of above)Karl Medal for 1 woundAustrian WWI Commemorative-- note no X here??? (maybe a peacetime Bronze Signum Laudis?)?1908 Military Jubilee Cross (if Austrian Long Service-- where IS 1908?)? 1912/13 Mobilization Cross with improper X-- or is that a 1914 Red Cross award with improper X instead of a War Decoration wreath?hat and single number on infantry boards (3? 8?):Austrian generic frontline bravery/war merit XdittoHindenburg XAustrian WWI (now has grown X)Hungarian WWI Commemorative X (added and in wrongplace as commonly seen)? Troop CrossKarl Medal for 1 Wound??? again ?1908 again/ 1912/13/Red CRoss w X againHe must have been a reservist in the FIRST war to be that old and NOT have any long service award. If "???" was the 18987 Military Jubilee followed by a 1908... he had over 20 years IMPERIAL service in, and was STILL only a captain in 1939/40!!!!

Verdun16 Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) This bar had me going because the order seemed to be all out of whack so I thought I would share the fun.
