    I recently added this picture to my collection. It's an major of the 3rd Württembergian infantry regiment Nr. 121

    I think it should be possible to identify him.

    I tried it myself, but wasn't able to find a post 1914 ranklist online

    He is wearing:

    • EK2 1914
    • Württembergischer MVO (Ritterkreuz)
    • Friedrichs-Orden Ritterkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwertern ???
    • An EK - equivalent - which one ???
    • Bayrischer MVO III.Klasse mit Schwertern und Krone ???
    • Sächsischer Albrechtsorden Ritter 2.Klasse
    • Bremer Hanseatenkreuz
       
    • EK1 1914
    • Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz

    #4 appears to have a center medallion and is slightly smaller than the other awards.  It may well be the Wurttemberg 1st Class Long Service Cross.
