laurentius Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 Dear fellow collectors, I recently stumbled upon the career of Marie Johan Teixeira de Mattos, a Dutchman who served in the German army during WW1, in the cavalry regiment 'Königin Wilhelmina der Niederlande'. After having served a few months on the western front he and his regiment were moved to the eastern front, just in time to take part in the Battle of Tannenberg. Do any of you know his awards? I know he was a knight in the Dutch order of Oranje-Nassau, and that he was a knight in the Johanniter-Orden. Kind regards, and thanks in advance, Laurentius
