Dave Danner Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I literally have a picture of "old" Adolf: Born 14. September 1876 in Freiburg. He was a banker there, and died in 1960. His family appear to have been prominent bankers in Freiburg, so they probably screwed my family on a loan at some point. He was a one-year volunteer in 1898 and was promoted to Lt.d.R. in IR 169 on 19 December 1903. At some point, he moved to the Landwehr. In 1914, he was a Lt.d.L. in Landwehrbezirk Freiburg im Breisgau. On mobilization, he went to IR 113. He was promoted to OLt.d.L. on 24. December 1914, while serving in IR 113. He was promoted to Hptm.d.L. on 20 July 1916, while serving in the I. Ers.Btl. of IR 113. He has a personnel file in the Landesarchiv in Karlsruhe which might have more detail. He does not appear to have received the Zähringen Lion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
