Prussia Imperial German abbreviation-ology

[jonv]

Could somebody please decode for me the abbreviation / symbology associated with

the following:

on the epaulet there is either a UR, AR, CCR??

Another common abbreviation that I should know, this time

on the Dienstaltersliste entry for Gen von Woyrsch: he is

Chef IR 51 ... then looks like "ic" or possibly "rc"

Jon,

it the cipher of a General à la suite to the Kaiser and in fact WR.

The symbol means etc.

Regards

Glenn
