    Hi cnock,

    that would be Hauptmann Ernst Karl Böhmer. Originally from the Field Artillery branch of service he was commissioned into Niedersächsisches Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr. 46. From 1911 until the outbreak of war he was serving with the Instructional Regiment of the Field Artillery School of Gunnery. At mobilisation he was assigned as an observer to FFA 11. He commanded FAA 213 from 15 Jan 16 - 9 Aug 17 and FA 221(A) from 9 Aug 17 - 21 Aug 17 followed by command of AFP 4 from 22 August onwards. He remained in the Reichsheer following the war serving mainly with the transport troops ultimately commanding 2. (Preußische) Sanitäts-Abteilung. He disappears before 1934.

    Leutnant: 27.1.06 P2p

    Oberleutnant: 14.9.14

    Hauptmann: 18.9.15 P4p

    Major: 1.5.28 (2)

    Regards

    In Laurenz Demps' "Zwischen Mars und Minerva- Wegweiser Invalidenfriedhof", there is an entry regarding Ernst Böhmer. The only information it contains not already provided by Glenn is that he died 03. February 1939 in Berlin. It also lists his last rank as Oberst der Reichswehr.

    An Oberstleutnant (E) Böhmer with a Patent of 1.2.33 (E) appears in the 12 October 1937 Stellenbesetzung in the Heeres-Waffenamt. He does not appear in the January 1939 edition, so possibly this was his last appointment.

    Regards

    Glenn
