Hi andy,

Obergefr. = Obergefreiter = PFC

1. Bttr. K.S. Fu?a.-Btl. Nr. 152 = 1. Batterie k?niglich s?chsisches Fu?artillerie-Bataillon Nr. 152

The signature could be Emrich.

Obergefreiter = Unteroffizier in the foot artillery. They used this special rank, like Obej?ger = Unteroffizier in J?ger units.

Emrich was Major aD Georg Karl Emrich (1876-19??), who won the St Henry Order in 1917. Thanks for posting this EK2 document-- the late Erhard Roth did not know that Emrich commanded this battalion, so that is new data for the Saxon data base. :cheers:
