Young Leutnant with MG badge and Mecklenburg MVK 1st class

[Uffz. Rohleder]

Hello all, 

 

Got this nice photo of a young Leutnant. His name was Willi (Wilhelm?) Heldt. 

Can someone tell me in which unit he was in? 

 

Greetings

Stefan

Willy Friedrich Bernhard Otto Heldt, born 21.7.1896 in Tessin, Mecklenburg-Schwerin.  Twice wounded in 1918.  He received the MMV1 as a Leutnant der Reserve in MG-Scharfschützen-Abteilung Nr. 11. He probably received his MMV2 as a Gefreiter in MG-Scharfschützen-Abteilung Nr. 20, but I can't be sure, as there are a bunch of awards with that name gazetted in the Regierungsblatt.
