The Prussian Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Hello! The commander of Fl.Ers.Abt.7 was from 1915 - 1917: Georg von Tschudi http://www.frontflieger.de/2-fea07.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soderbaum Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I do think that von Tschudi did not arrive to FEA 7 Cöln until early 1916, despite nominated commander earlier. So there were likely five commanders before him. Gunnar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prussian Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Hello Erwin! my source is: Stellenbesetzung der deutschen Heere 1815-1939: https://www.amazon.de/Stellenbesetzung-Deutschen-Heere-1815-1939/dp/B009FKDYHC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arb Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Erwin, I used Wegner's "Stellenbesetzung der deutschen Heere" as well as the Militärwichenblatt plus a few "Dienstaltersllisten" for his promotions. The problem with Wegner is that he does not usually provide end dates. I use the date that the next officer took over, not always the same date the first officer departed, hence differences. What sources did you use to find his command of RIR 15 and as Komdt of Nordeney?? Andy (arb) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy (arb) I found it on the axis forum: https://forum.axishistory.com//viewtopic.php?t=193741 Doesn't mention sources tho. On a side note. The 2 von Gottbergs mentioned in that thread are brothers.

ErwinZ Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 (edited) I can use some major help with these ones. This index for photographs are from 7.7.18 to 20.11.18. From the 21. Reserve-Division and most likely the 41. Reserve-Infanterie-Brigade. Some names I identified already. Cantin (on first page), Croisilles, Quentin, Quievy, Valenciennes, La Bourse Brussel.

Daniel Cole Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Can I get some help with the Handwriting? My wife's Great Grandfather in Austrian Infantry Regiment Nr. 11 "Georg Prinx von sachsen". Now I could use some help from a native German speaker that can help me with the handwriting. What I know is: Ort: Stehlowitz, BezirK: Muhlhausen, Kreis oder Komitat: Budweis, Land: Bohmen. Geburtsjahr: 1834, Religion: katolisch, Stand: Ledig, Profession: ? That all matches other family docs I have. I sure could use some with the rest of it. next stop is to figure out if he was in the Italian campaign of 1859 and the battle of Solferino,.
