Chris Boonzaier Posted October 2, 2016 Posted October 2, 2016 ...from a Militärpass bursting at the seems.... the guy saw a lot of service, but these are the more interesting stamps..... Wartime for the Feldgemdarmerie Abteilung Kurland, then the Gendarmerie Brigade of the Baltische Landwehr.....
bolewts58 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) What does it say at the bottom of the Baltic Landwehr stamp and also the blue stamp above and in the writing? It looks something like Gendarmerie Brigade Greuz. Is 'Greuz' correct? It's hard to read clearly. Edited October 3, 2016 by bolewts58
The Prussian Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Hello! The green stamp says: Feldgendarmerie-Brigade der baltischen Landwehr, Gendarmerie-Trupp 2

The green stamp says: Feldgendarmerie-Brigade der baltischen Landwehr, Gendarmerie-Trupp 2 I see it now. But, above that it's stamped in blue "Feldgendarmerie-Brigade ? (looks like 'Greuz') A.O.K. 8 (Armee Oberkommando 8 ?) Trupp 2.
The Prussian Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Ah, ok. I can´t read it. Probably a town, a district or the name of the commander. Infortunately I don´t have an idea
bolewts58 Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Baltic Landwehr were in Libau. It's possibly a commander.
The Prussian Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 A shot in the dark... The Gouvernement Libau was commanded by Gen.Lt. Neugebauer. His chief of staff was Lt.Col. v. Gazen. Maybe???
