Hi Gents,

an early colonial officer with.

Württembergian Friedrichsorden Ritterkreuz 1. class with swords

Prussian Kronenorden 4th class with swords

At the back signed with Sanleben or Sauleben, I couldn´t find him.

Help as allways very appreciated.

Hello Andreas,

are you sure with Sanleben or Sauleben.

I would say it´s definitely Premierlieutenant Franz Kielmeyer

He was member of the 120th württemb. Inf. Regt Nr. 120 till April 1893

and served from 5th April 1893 till 1st February 1898 (Killed in action) in German Eastafrica

He received the KO4x and WF3aX

Very nice Photo

Best wishes

Karsten
