JapanX Posted July 20, 2013 Author Posted July 20, 2013 Citation for his 3rd class St.George reads "В воздаяние отличной храбрости и мужества, оказанных во время военных действий германских войск во Франции" "In retribution of exellent bravery and courage shown during military operations of german forces in France" Compactly
Guest Rick Research Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) If I might make a suggestion-- it would be easier for Research Gnomes if you posted each photo as an individual thread--or different photos of the same person in one thread. Germans in the German section, Austrians in the Austrian section. Lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng threads become unwieldy, and referring back, sometimes many previous posts, gets awkward flipping back and forth. Easier to react to additional data when one photo/same person is being discussed in one thread. I've looked at Regierungs- und Oberpolizei-Rat Hans Kenda, for instance (Posts 42, 43, 44) in the 1905 Almanach of Franz Joseph Order recipients, and in the Franz Joseph Order recipients Ehrenbuch of 1909... and he didn't provide us with any birth data or the years of his ther Orders. And I have photos--for instance of the King of Württemberg etc--different times, different awards... but no point in posting them pages apart in a giant thread. Messy! Confusing! I'm getting old, things need to be simple.... Edited July 20, 2013 by Rick Research
JapanX Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 They say that the the name of this ex Prussian officer is Paul Sturm (in serbian Pavle Jurisic-Sturmlater - later he bacame a serbian general)
JapanX Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 Born on August 22, 1848 in Görlitz, died on January 14, 1922 in Belgrad St.Anna and St.Stanislaus are obvious... But is it 4th class St.George cross?!
