Guest Rick Research Posted June 8, 2008 Posted June 8, 2008 That's odd because there is only ONE regular officer spelled Thaden with one d (not Thadden like most of the family) and he was a signals officer in the Imperial army as you list--so who on earth was the Wehrmacht (E) ONE-and-only ALSO a signals officer, then?
AnDie Posted June 8, 2008 Author Posted June 8, 2008 Dear Rick,I have the promotion dates from the Reichsrangliste der Offiziere der Ordnungspolizei 15.09.1943. The same promtion dates for Leutnant and Oberleutnant I found in the Rangliste der Kgl. Preu?ischen Armee until 1914 and in the Dienstaltersliste 1919.Wilhelm von Thaden was 1936 - 1938 Kommandeur der Schutzpolizei L?beck.AnDie
