David M Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hi Micha,I have some of my officers who received a prussian REO during their career. I would have to look up all of them, but one who should be in the book is Johann Philipp Bauer, a kurhessian Generalleutnant. I would like to know what kind of info the book has on this officer!ThanksDavidHi David,I've got a reprint of this book-what exactely do you want to know?

joe campbell Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 FYI-William Hamelman wrote a book in the late seventies "Of Red Eagles and Royal Crowns".while it has no recipients listed, it is a nice historyof the rote adler orden and kronenorden fromtheir inceptions.joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorhead Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 The only information in the book I found about him:REO 1st class with swords 1849. Another interesting page with informations about Bauer (but in german):http://home.germany.net/101-102451/zf/arti...stphalians.htmlRegardsMicha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
