Marcin L Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Dear friends, I would kindly ask you to identify people that signed these three citations (1x EK 1914, 2x black awards for wounds). Is it possible to tell anything more about people mentioned in the documents? Kind regards, Marcin ==== === Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great documents. I don't know is much can be said about the signers of the documents; in the first doc, he was clearly not the Colonel and Regiment Commander and was just a Major. In the second he was the Lieutenant Colonel and Regiment Commander of 37th Landwehr, operating in Russia/Poland in July 1915. The third was a Major and Regiment commander and apparently tolerated beetle motifs on his wound badge documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulsterman Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I seem to recall a long time ago the Maikafer discussion with Verkuilen Ager. NEAT documents. Wasn't there also a traditions badge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
