Naxos Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) Here is my other one - Beauty! ... is there a name on the back of the K.F. Militärverdienstmedaille? Edited October 17, 2011 by Naxos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Thank you Naxos. Yes indeed there is - L. Rau. This medal was awarded on 8 January 1871 to Gefreiter Ludwig Rauch of the 3rd Infantry Regiment (in) acknowledgment of outstanding bravery on 18 December 1870 in the battle at Nuits.

Naxos Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 I found him: Gefreiter Ludwig Rau (not Rauch) Gefreiter Ludwig Rau served in 11th Companie, 3. Baden Infantry Regiment His name was printed wrong as Ludwig Rauch on page 31 of the Badische Staatsanzeiger from January 1871. On page 201 of the Badische Staatsanzeiger there is the correction of his name as Ludwig Rau (not Rauch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Wow! How very interesting. Thank you for this additional information. I think that the confusion stems, in part, from the fact that there clearly is a period (.) after the RAU on the medal. Again, many thanks - the learning process never ceases.
