    I know nothing about WW1 signatures and the following are two of the very few I have...

    #57 Gustav Frhr. von Bodenhausen

    And #2...

    #58 Richard von Conta. He recieved the PLM on 15.10.1916 as commanding General of the Carpathian Corps (20.07.1916-01.01.1918) and the oak leaves on 26.03.1918.

    Thank you very much 'arb' - that is absolutely great.

    Bad form on my part for not "signing" my posts. My name is Andy and I am glad to have helped.

    #65 Rittm. d. R. von Killisch-Horn (and that's the cleanest signature I've seen in years!)

    #66 Hptm. d.R. Mühlenpfordt (1914 Leutn. d.R. d. IR 72)

    #67 Traugott Zander

    #68 Hans von Dewall

    #69 and 70 Leopold Frhr. von Ledebur

    Dave,

    Great work on the reservists. May I ask what your sources for the information are?

    The Militär-Wochenblatt for the promotion dates. Gotha for Günther von Killisch-Horn's first name and birthdate. The Lundström/Krause book on Saxon duchy awards for Mühlenpfordt's first name, and Mühlenpfordt's dissertation for his exact birthdate.
