Hello Christophe, all,

 

please find attached three photos of two different and unknown officers with their HHO3X.

I hope they are of use for you.

 

Is there any chance for an identification?

 

Kind regards,

Leonard

nice!

the 1st guy seems to be Georg Hartung from FußAR 7

 

for the 2nd guy I would bet on Colonel Wilhelm Alberti, ex GR 5, then EIR 29

 

Best,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

 

awesome, thank you very much! Appreciate it, as always.

There is another photo of Mr. Alberti to which a comparison can be made, I'd say: Spot on!

Eugen Sch...? 

Looks like a nice Godet bar to me. 

I am unsure about the third ribbon.

Note the embroidered eagle.

[Daniel Krause]

Eugen Schmidtborn,

Was a Studienrat in Wiesbaden.

3rd ribbon is the Hessen bravery medal.

 

Best,

Here is another recipient, but unfortunately I'm unsure about his name.

I think that is Oberst Otto Krauß, formerly of Fußartillerie-Regiment Nr. 16 and ARKO 37.

Does this picture count, too? :-)

It´s Prince Leopold IV. of Lippe-Detmold, the picture was taken around 1930.

Beautiful photo showing his awards very nicely.

Thanks Glenn for the ID. Ok here is another unknown officer. I believe his ribbon bar shows the HOH3x in third place.
