The Prussian Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) Hello! The man was Pr.Lt. Carl Muskewitz. Ranklist 1866/67: 4. Rheinisches Landwehr-Regiment Nr.30, 1. Bataillon in Trier, Train. The commanding General of VIII. Corps was General d.Inf. Herwarth v. Bittenfeld Probably he did a good job in 1866, because four years later, in the Iron Cross list of 1870/71, he received the Iron Cross 2nd class in the same duty! Here his rank was already Rittmeister: In ranklist 1870/71 he was listed as Rittmeister in 8. Landwehr-Regiment Nr.70, 1.Bataillon in Trier. In 1872 he left the army. His first ranklist-entry was 1860, he used to be Sec.Lt. in 1. Rheinisches Landwehr-Regiment, 1. Bataillon, Aachen, Train. That means he never was an active officer. He served as a one-year-volunteer in 1859, promoted to Sec.Lt. and then he served as an officer of the Reserve, later officer of the Landwehr.

The Prussian Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Thank you! That´s hard... Above is "Zum freundlichen Gedenken" (in friendly remembrance), then it could be "Falkenau" (a small town in Saxony), But unfortunately I can´t read the name. Is it military?

arb Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I believe the name in "von Ohnesorge." If the photo has anything to do with artillery, it would most likely be Feodor von Ohnesorge. 1914 a captain and "Lehrer an d. Feldart. Schießschule." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Thank you so much! Guess our guy is Fl.Ob.Mt. Anesorge. What about the first name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolewts58 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I get Bruno as the first name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prussian Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Hello! Bruno is possible. To me it could be Bruno Anesorg. But he is unknown to me. Do we have any more infos indicating him as a soldier? The Flieger-Obermaat could be Max Anesorge, missing in 1918: http://des.genealogy.net/search/show/4459952 Edited January 1 by The Prussian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaba1914 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Great pic Lew. Congratulation. It seems he was a Army soldier before he came to the Navy aviation. I have him as an Artillerie Matrose but didnt' know that he was an Army man. I miss the award for the EK2 for many persons on my database. I'm sure the most of them got the cross but I want a confirmation before I enter the information. Please send me a copy of the picture for my database without copyright. Regarding the second ribbon it is important to know where he came from. Unfortunately I don't have the place of birth for Anesorge. If he was a Saxon (Falkenau) than Friedrich-August-Medaille is likely. 5 hours ago, lew said: Sure here is the full content. I belive that the location is "Holtenau" not "Falkenau". Anesorge was at the Stamm of I. SFA at Holtenau from Mar. - May 1918. But the picture was done later.
