    Hi Bernhard,

    Thanks, the tip with the double M nailed it. Gremmels is not a comman name and seems to be mainly found in the Hannover area.

    I combed all 3 volumes, it seems he was not an officer, not an EK1 recipient and not KIA... otherwise I cannot find any name lists?

     

    Best

    Hello readers.

    I do agree with Andy re. Gremmers. The letter before the last on third or fourth look must be "r".

    Grey c. :The Goslar location given as the location of the cap's maker seems to point  to Jg.Bataillon 10 (Hannoversches) garrisoned in Goslar. Distinguished with the "Gibraltar" cuff title.

    It is of course 100% supposition, but based on a number of the cases I have had with the 2nd Bavarian Jäger.... it is very possible for a guy to have been in the 2nd Jäger, then land up in an infantry unit, then to return to the Jäger at demobilisation. It is possible that Gremmels was only in the 10th Jäger for a short period of time, although the hat is well worn....
