VtwinVince Posted June 12, 2019 Posted June 12, 2019 I thought this would be relatively easy to ID, with the Red Cross Medal for the Russo-Japanese War on it. No such luck, I've scoured the rolls and can't find a match. If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to hear them.
VtwinVince Posted June 14, 2019 Author Posted June 14, 2019 Thanks Scott. I actually can't find any German recipient of the Russian Red Cross Medal for 1904-05 in the award rolls. I suspect this guy was a medical officer attached to the Russian fleet.
VtwinVince Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 Probably a naval medical officer, possibly stationed at Kiautschou during the 1905 war.

VtwinVince Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 Nope, these guys would have been stationed at the German mandate, and would have been involved in assisting Russian wounded. If anyone has a Rangliste for the Reichsmarine, maybe they could look up Drs. Doerr and Freyer, both Oberassistenzaertze who received the St. Stanislaus at Kiautschou and who might be the guy.
