    Reserve-Infanterie-Regiment 261


    Recommended Posts

    Hi guys!

    I am looking for someone who might have a copy of:

    Schwerin, C.v. und Schmidt, K.: Reserve-Infanter Regiment 261 (Garde Kriegsformation) in Ost und West, 128 S. Berlin, 1923.

    Especially interested in Hauptmann Friedrich Freiherr von Diepenbroick-Gr?ter, Bataillonschef during the Masuren-Schlacht and the Verfolgung bis zum Bobr and his previous and afterward career. As well as mention of Louis M?ldner von M?lnheim, Compagniechef in the 6th Company of this Regiment from Dezember 1914-August 1915.

    Thanks very much for any replies!
