Karl-Heinz Moehle, Knight's Cross

[Edward L. Hsiao]

I need a post World War II picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle that was taken in the 1950's or the 1960's. He was the first U-boat commander of U-123. Little of post WWII life of Moehle was not available. But I want to know if Moehle joined the Bundesmarine in the late 1950's. Thank you.

Hej!

Jag fick information från en vän om att MR Moehle inte bara gick med i Bundesmarine på 50-talet. Han blev också chef för NATO comnav baltap maj 1965. Hoppas att detta kan hjälpa dig att ta reda på mer om honom.

His name after 1949 was, Karl-Heinz Moehle von Hoffmannswaldau.

[Edward L. Hsiao]

Dear Sir,

Thank you for this  good reply. I learn something new. Do you have a picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle von Hoffmannswaldau  in Bundesmarine uniform please?

                                                                                                                  Sincerely,

                                                                                                         Edward L. Hsiao

I forgot to ask what was Karl-Heinz Moehle von Hoffmannswaldau highest rank in the Bundesmarine before he retired from it?

                                                                                                                              Edward L. Hsiao

Edward,

I'm not sure that Jens Z is talking about the same person as you are.  Karl-Heinz Moehle does not appear in Franz Kurowski's book "Verleugnete Vaterschat - Wehrmachtoffiziere schufen die Bundeswehr".  This book contains a list of all Knights Cross holders that joined the Bundeswehr.

Regards,

Gordon

To whom this may concern.

The one Moehle I refere to is the only one my family has knowledge about. Born Norden 31 Juli 1910. Dead 17.11.1996 in Ahrensburg outside Hamburg. The Nurnberg-trails gave him 5 years in prison, for passing the Laconia order,  but realised by end 1949. Think it was onboard the U-22 he met my kusins father, but not sure about the submarine number. He took his wifes family name in the town of Kiel, end of 1949. I am very sorry if I mixed two different Karl-Heinz together, but I am never 100% sure about anything. Just fell to give Edward a hand closer to a picture of ............

Jen Z, I think the Karl-Heinz Moehle that you mention about was correct. He was commander of U-22 and U-123 during WWII. Moehle was in the Bundesmarine after WWII. The same Karl-Heinz Moehle! Hopefully a postwar of Karl-Heinz Moehle.

                                                                                                                                          Edward L. Hsiao

An after World War II picture of a clean shaven face man named Karl-Heinz Moehle is needed to forgot my troubles.I hope the picture will come soon.

                                                                                                                                                Edward L. Hsiao

Jen Z or Anyone,

I hope you got a picture of Karl-Heinz Moehle in after World War II times in the 1950's and 1960's.

[Edward L. Hsiao]

To Jen Z or Anyone,

I'm sorry but Karl-Heinz Moehle did not command U-22 U-boat during WWII. Still waiting for a post World War II picture of Moehle who have a clean shaven face of course.
