Bernhard H.Holst Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Hello Stefan. Thanks for showing this concerning Gen.d.Inf. L. Wolf. Very interesting to because of his command of 22.Inf.Div. later ( # 695-697) in which a relative served throughout the war. Anyone who has seen photos of him after the severe wound he suffered, must be wondering how he survived. Bernhard H. Holst
Deruelle Posted December 26, 2014 Author Posted December 26, 2014 Hi everybody, Here is one new ribbon bar. It belonged to Major a. D. Fritz Renner from I.R. Nr. 107. Christophe

Deruelle Posted December 26, 2014 Author Posted December 26, 2014 @Stefan, thanks for showing this nice photo of Wolff. Here is one I have @Bernhard, thanks for posting the WW2 portrait of Wolff Christophe
OTTER76 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) A lucky one for me. Was it usual to have a HHOX ribbon with no sword device? Edited May 3, 2015 by OTTER76
Deruelle Posted May 14, 2015 Author Posted May 14, 2015 Hi, What a beauty. I have found only two prussian officer with low ranks who received SH3 and HHO3X. Congrats
Trooper_D Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) .../... Nice photo, Deruelle. What is the medal, please, and why is he wearing the badge hanging from a bow rather than a normal medal ribbon? I would normally associate bows with medals awarded to women. Edited May 14, 2015 by Trooper_D
IR 134 Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 Nice photo, Deruelle. What is the medal, please, and why is he wearing the badge hanging from a bow rather than a normal medal ribbon? I would normally associate bows with medals awarded to women.I´m sure these medals and the way he´s wearing it are some sort of Krieger-Vereins-Abzeichen, maybe "Verein Jäger und Schützen". Their "Vereinsuniform" were nearly identical to their military counterpart. Gruß Stefan
Deruelle Posted May 15, 2015 Author Posted May 15, 2015 Thanks Stefan for the information. Here is another photo
Deruelle Posted May 15, 2015 Author Posted May 15, 2015 Diploma FAMs to Fähnrich and later Leutnant Ralph Etzold. He received the EK2 and SA3bX.
