Andreas,

also replied at the Sammlergemeinschaft. It is the later General der Kavallerie Carl v. Hänisch as a Generalleutnant and divisional commander of the Cavallerie-Division of XV. Armee-Corps around 1889. He is not wearing much of what he was entitled to! Pretty much (apart from the Ludwig Order) just his Prussian stuff. He later commanded IV. Armee-Korps.

Thanks Glenn,

very appreciated.

He had a lot of other medals, why he´s wearing only this stuff, who knows ?

Maybe Prussian understatement ?!

Kind regards
