Oberleutnant Vollmer

[MJC]

I am looking for any information or identification of a man named Oberleutnant Vollmer of infantry regiment Markgraf 7, Brandenberg 60. He won a sword as a shooting prize in 1906.

Anything is helpful, and thanks in advance.

In 1909 Vollmer was a Hauptmann still in the same Regiment.

Wow, I should have started my stop-watch so I could time you guys. Nothing about his shoe size or favorite liquor?

This is a piece of a larger puzzle so I will update the thread as more project data becomes available. Many thanks, beers on me.

Best,

Mike

And the "other" Oberlt. Vollmer (dR) of the LIR 120. He got intimate with Sgt. York. :D
