GdC26 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Christophe, This is excellent information. Many thanks, much appreciated. Best regards, Sandro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Swords to White Falcon Commander 1st Class gazetted 10 February 1915 per Roth's work on Saxon officers. I will go back in and add his dates for the awards you have above. Whether those were AWARD dates or GAZETTE dates, do not know until somebody duplicates his lost work.He also had a China Medal in Steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GdC26 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Many thanks, Rick, I really appreciate your efforts on my behalf. Any idea what happened to his prewar Ehrenkreuz of the Orden der W?rttembergischen Krone? Best regards, Sandro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Rick, Where do you find the date for SF1 please ? I haven't seen it in your rolls.Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Just turned it up when looking in Roth's work on Saxon Hauptleute up. Not on the Rolls. We do not know where Herr Roth got his data from. All his notes and research were thrown away after he died. Somebody will have to start all over again rebuilding that data base. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VtwinVince Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Any chance of seeing those tunics, Sandro? They sound outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi Daniel, Where do you find such informations ? Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Christophe-- that's Roth's typewritten book. I am afraid he never circulated these very widely and there is no "publishing" data since they were made as copies. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
