QSAMIKE Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) Good Evening Everyone..... I just obtained the documents and folder as shown below....... The folder is Golden Leather, with Gilded Brass and Enamel Fittings....... Dated - 29 April 1886 The title page reads: Seiners Hochwohlgeboren dem Herrn K.K. General Intendanten Josef SCHREDT Intendanz - Chief Des 15 Corps I will let the photos speak for themselves..... Question - What does the K.K. General Intendanten mean ?????? Thanks in advance..... Mike Edited October 18, 2014 by QSAMIKE
Markgraf Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 As wraith 42 wrote, some additional info: the pay-grade V., same as the Generalmajor. The employees of the quartermaster corps were military officials, not officers. They had no right to wear the sword-knot.
QSAMIKE Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 Thank You Gentlemen...... Using Google Translation I think that this is a testimonial with regards to 40 years of service..... Mike
Markgraf Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Correct. Later (1898) FJ founded a medal for 40 years faithful services. http://forum.valka.cz/viewtopic.php/t/25919/start/-1
Glenn J Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 They had no right to wear the sword-knot. Not according to the "Adjustirungs- und Ausrüstungs-Vorschrift für das k. k. Heer 1878", page 473 (Militär-Intendanturs-Beamte) Regards Glenn

QSAMIKE Posted July 16, 2016 Author Posted July 16, 2016 Good Afternoon Everyone...... I have decided to pass this on to raise some funds for a medal group I am looking at...... Someone asked me when this was first posted if I was ever to sell let them know and now I cannot find them, maybe changed forum name...... If anyone is interested please let me know..... Mike
Bayern Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Hello The General intendanten ranks as generalmajor and this in particular was imperial royal that is belonging to the austrian Landwehr . not to the common army imperial and royal . All the officials of the three A H armies carried sabre , and portepee . Ones the infantry officers sabre others a more elegant type .
