Identifiable Oberstleutnant

[Ian]

Good evening all,

 

I thought I had this Oberstleutnant identified, or at least that I was well on my way to ID'ing him, but alas I was wrong.

 

He is wearing a possible/probable Leopold Order-Ritter, probably a silver and a bronze Signum Laudis, one other medal on a bravery ribbon and a KTK.

 

I am hoping that someone on this forum will be able to decipher the name for me.  I was going to add my thoughts on his name, but I may have muddied the waters.

 

Cheers,

Ian

The name, is "Armand", but I'm not sure whether this is a family or a first name...

Elmar,

 

Thank you.  That was the name I thought as well.  I have not been able to find an Oberstleutnant Armand in any of my Rangliste, so now I will search for a a first name of Armand amongst the Heer and Landwehr.

I conducted a page by page search of my 1918 Rangliste and I believe that  the mystery man is:

Armand von VORNER,  Infanterieregiment Nr. 2. Promoted to Oberstleutnant 01 January 1917.
