Guest Rick Research Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Hi ho! Those are not Dr. Koschel's-- those are Vizeadmiral zS Joachim Lietzmann's....and that ribbon bar is in my collection, by the way. As is Dr. Koschel's: Any other admirals/generals whose ribbon bars are in my collection you're interested in?All scans of any of my items posted on that website are stolen and displayed there without my permission. You will be able to see large close up scans of each of the devices in the section on ribbon bars at:http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?autocom=galler...q=sc&cat=24
Guest Rick Research Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Generalmajor zV Hugo Kiehl?ANOTHER Vizeadmiral zS Joachim Lietzmann?Vizeadmiral zS Kurt Slevogt?Vizeadmiral zS Karl Topp?Generalleutnant Erwin von R?mer?of course these are only the ones I happen to have already scanned at the same size to each other.... :rolleyes:
Guest Rick Research Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Admiral zS Conrad Albrecht?Konteradmiral zS zV Hans Kehrhahn?But then these are from when they were still in the Imperial navy or Reichsmarine, and you are only interested in the Wehrmacht?

Of course, we would PREFER that people actually BUY our books since it is taking YEARS of our work rather than just continually handing over information for free that would not be available if we did not DO all that work. No other MEDICAL generals/admirals in my collection.General der Infanterie Hans von Obstfelder (some nitwit pulled off his EK Spange and Wehrmacht long service eagles )Generalmajor Johannes Hahn:Generalleutnant Ottfried Sattler:If you would like to use any of these images, online credit to me as Rick Research is fine-- everybody knows who I am. For more formal credit, my real name is more appropriate. But NO credit whatsoever goes to that other website. These items are mine. My scans made by me are mine...and I decide who may or may not use them-- not internet pirates and people without honour or integrity. :cheers:
Dueppel Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Hello Rick,I think you can remove the question mark behind Erwin von R?mer. He changed to the air force in 1934. In WWI he was an observer.Best regards Dueppel
Guest Rick Research Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 No-- I wasn't questioning their identities, just whether Alexandre was ever going to ask for them since he apparently wants ALL of the entire German general officers' corps one by one without having the Generals/Admirals volumes or Rank Lists. And color is so much easier than black and white photos! What I have is that EXACT ribbon bar von R?mer is wearing in the generals' biographies volume-- his Wehrmacht long service ribbons were fading even then. General Hahn's ribbon bar is also the EXACT one he is wearing in his army Generals' biographies portrait.
Alexandre Posted December 13, 2008 Author Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Hello Rick,Many thx for your informations.Internet Pirates really is a pity.When my project to be ready, I would like to use some pictures of your property. I will call you certainly. RegardsBTW... I dont need the entire officers of Wehrmacht....only someone... :D Edited December 13, 2008 by Alexandre
