Mikko13 Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Hello Gentlemen, recently, I could acquire this interesting miniatyre chain from a Baltic Division-veteran. All I could research for my own is the fact, that this guy must have been from the "Sächsische Karabinier-Regiment". On the chain the following crosses are missing: Weimarer-Medaille KVK 2 Helsinki Medaille 1938 The "Sächsische Karabinier-Regiment" was located in the city of Borna. Is someone out there who can give a name to this chain? I will be very thankful. Best regards Mikko
Deruelle Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Very nice chain, congrats and thanks for sharing it with us. I found a name : Oblt Walter Schintling Horny But there is more names Lt d. R. Hans Leo Oblt Horst Rößing. That's all I have, like I have no more medals after 1934 Christophe
Mikko13 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks Christophe, hm, maybe an additional information (the last I have - wanted to keep it to see whether someone hits the name straight...). The seller told that him was told (and maybe so on...) that the guy was Oblt Grimm (or Graim)... That's all I have... Maybe a hint? Maybe not! Cheers Mikko
christerd Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Fantastic Chain , Mikko Sorry to say I dont have any other names for the moment. Christer
Deruelle Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Hi Mikko, Sorry to say that but in my database I can't find any Grimm or Graim with that combo. Christophe
Mikko13 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Posted January 24, 2014 thank you, christophe. so the research is going on... maybe the volkspflege decoration can be a key. and the veteran must have been still alive in 1938 due to the helsinki medal...ok, all lot of baltic division veterans have been quite young mikko
Mikko13 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Posted February 9, 2014 hello, i found out, that the soldier also received an ek1 in ww1. could this information help to find a name? it would be also interesting to know, christophe, when your possible candidates had died. one could only receive a helsinki medal when stoll alive in 1938?! regards mikko
